I've seen the fabric they have on hand (there's not much in silk velvet). The samples to order from retails for $400 yd, gorgeous stuff - rather heavy, what are you planning to use it for? I don't think they swatch at those prices and the best way to deal with the shop is in person. I also don't remember the width. If memory serves, it's sourced in Europe.
