Jaipur Chenille FabricCCF0859-15

Jaipur Fossil has a quiet, close-woven surface in a muted taupe-beige shade, with a soft grey-brown cast visible across the swatch. Its fine chenille texture gives the plain colour gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The 456 gsm weight gives Jaipur Fossil a substantial handle suited to upholstery, while the 137 cm usable width supports practical cutting on furniture projects. The colour sits between warm beige and cool taupe, with fine darker and lighter yarns creating a softly peppered appearance in the close weave. With 69 threads per centimetre, the surface reads as dense and finely textured rather than open or loosely woven. A 0 cm vertical and 0 cm horizontal pattern repeat confirms this as a plain, non-directional cloth; the standard length is 35 m.

How to use it

Use this muted taupe-beige on a sofa, armchair or dining chair where its restrained grey-brown depth can soften stronger wall colours and patterned cushions. The plain, finely textured surface also works well as a calm upholstery base for layered natural-toned schemes.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
