About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille has a fine, tactile texture that catches the light in subtly varied teal tones. The colour reads cooler and more blue-led in the brighter areas, with deeper green-teal shading where the pile changes direction. Suitable for contract and domestic upholstery, it offers a practical option for seating and other hard-working applications. It is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy, with treatment available to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this blue-green teal on a sofa, occasional chair or dining seat where its softly varied surface can add colour without a strong pattern. Pair it with pale woods, warm neutrals or darker blue accents to balance its cool depth.

The mottled teal tone brings cool depth to upholstered seating while the chenille texture adds quiet visual interest.

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.
