About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille has a close, subtly nubby texture that catches the light across its warm taupe surface. The colour sits between beige and grey, with slightly darker vertical and cloudy tonal shifts visible through the weave. It is suitable for contract and domestic upholstery and is machine washable for practical maintenance. Flame retardancy is rated for domestic cigarette and match, with treatment available to achieve Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm greige taupe on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its muted depth can soften stronger woods and add texture to a neutral room. Pair it with chalky creams, weathered timber and charcoal accents to bring out the subtle grey cast in the weave.

A softly mottled warm taupe chenille for calm, tailored upholstery schemes, from occasional chairs to larger seating.

Pairs well with

BEL1971 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.
