Shelley Chinchilla is a softly textured neutral with a warm beige-taupe cast and a gentle speckled surface. Its small-scale weave gives the colourway an understated, tactile finish rather than a flat plain look.

About this fabric

This Shelley colourway reads as a muted chinchilla taupe, with pale beige and mushroom tones that sit quietly across the surface. The visible weave is compact and even, giving the fabric a softly pebbled texture that catches light without looking shiny. With a width of approx. 138cm and a composition of 64% polyester, 32% viscose and 4% cotton, it offers a practical, cloth-like handle for everyday use. The repeat is vertical 0cm / horizontal 0cm approx., so the interest comes from the texture and tone rather than a patterned motif. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code K are supplied for specification reference.

How to use it

Use this soft taupe in rooms that need a calm, tailored neutral; it sits neatly with oak, limestone and putty-painted finishes. It is especially effective on upholstered chairs, sofas or ottomans where the subtle texture can warm a pared-back scheme.

A quietly textured neutral that works beautifully on tailored seating and relaxed cushions.

Pairs well with

Shelley Chinchilla is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
