Burgundy Velvet Rope
Deeper and older than red. Burgundy velour suits theatres and traditional interiors where bright red would look like a promotion rather than a fixture.
- Diameter 1.5"
- Core heavy cotton
- Cover velour
- Lengths 4 ft, 6 ft, 8 ft or cut to order
- Ends snap or hook
- End finishes match all post platings
What it is for
Bright red is an event colour. Burgundy is a building colour, which is why it turns up in theatre foyers and dining rooms that have looked broadly the same for decades. It carries the same warmth without the urgency and it sits comfortably next to the reds already in those rooms, the carpet and the seat upholstery in particular, where a brighter rope would clash with both. Under warm lighting it deepens rather than glares. The natural partner is a brass or antique plated post rather than stainless.
