BEL1983 is a pale blue-grey chenille with a finely mottled surface and a cool, silvery cast. Its restrained tonal variation gives the plain weave gentle depth without introducing a visible motif.

About this fabric

The light blue-grey colourway shifts subtly between misty grey and cooler blue tones, while the chenille texture catches the light across the swatch. Made from 100% polyester and woven at 138cm wide, it is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery. BEL1983 is machine washable, and although its stated flame retardancy is Domestic Cig & Match, it can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade. The low-contrast surface keeps the colour calm and adaptable while retaining more visual interest than a completely flat plain.

How to use it

Pair this cool, pale blue-grey with crisp whites, chalky neutrals and softly weathered timber for an airy scheme, or use it to temper darker blue and charcoal accents. Its subtle chenille texture is well suited to upholstered sofas, occasional chairs and headboards.

Use this cool, pale blue-grey chenille to bring a calm, lightly textured finish to sofas, dining chairs and headboards.

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.
