Faded Velvet

A piece of aged velvet. The color is deep wine red, dark green, or dark purple, but it has faded one shade, no longer saturated; the pile on frequently touched areas like armrests and seats is worn flat, appearing significantly brighter than the surrounding areas; the pile at the folds is flattened in different directions, creating variations in light and dark. In some places, the base fabric is even worn through. Avoid: using brand new, full velvet, using high-chroma vibrant colors, having a flat, unworn velvet surface, using synthetic imitation velvet.

一片有年代的絲絨。顏色是深酒紅、墨綠或暗紫,但已經褪掉一階,不再飽和;絨毛在扶手與坐面等常碰的地方被磨平,呈現明顯亮於周圍的區域;轉折處的絨毛倒向形成深淺的變化。有些地方甚至磨出了底布。避免:使用全新飽滿的絲絨、使用高彩度鮮豔的顏色、讓絨面平整無磨損、使用化纖的仿絲絨。
