velvet lining
Soft fabric inside
Velvet lining is the soft fabric interior of a container, garment, or case—typically one holding something precious or delicate: The ring nestled in the velvet lining of its box.
The phrase evokes luxury and careful protection.
Figuratively, a velvet lining suggests hidden comfort within something outwardly plain or harsh, the inverse of an iron fist in a velvet glove.
