Vellum is the antique paper color of the Metamorphosis Palette: warm, softened, and quietly aged. It carries more parchment depth and refinement than a standard cream, making it especially useful for furniture that needs a sense of history.

Vellum is part of the Metamorphosis Palette, a curated collection inspired by natural history, collected interiors, and the quiet beauty of the world around us.
