ALT4217 is a pale ivory chenille with a gently uneven, low-contrast surface that gives the light colour subtle depth. Fine woven variation catches the light without forming a defined pattern.

About this fabric

This chenille is composed of 84% polyester and 16% recycled cotton, with a 138cm width for domestic upholstery applications. Its warm cream tone is softened by small shifts in the weave, creating a lightly pebbled texture rather than a flat plain. ALT4217 is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy. The overall effect is quiet and relaxed, with the tactile surface adding interest while keeping the colour scheme light.

How to use it

Use this warm ivory colourway on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its softly irregular texture can bring depth to an otherwise pale room. Pair it with natural timber, oatmeal linens and muted beige or stone accents for a gentle tonal scheme.

A softly textured warm ivory chenille for calm, light-toned upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

ALT4217 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.
