About this fabric

The dense chenille weave is visibly plush and finely textured, with small shifts between taupe, brown and charcoal across the surface. This dark, earthy colourway reads warmer than a straightforward grey while retaining a restrained, contemporary character. Made from 100% polyester, the 138cm-wide fabric is suitable for contract and domestic upholstery. CAP4472 is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® flame retardancy.

How to use it

Use this smoky taupe brown on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its deep neutral tone can anchor lighter walls, warm timber and muted stone shades. The subtle chenille texture adds interest without introducing a visible pattern.

A deep smoky taupe chenille that brings understated warmth and tactile depth to upholstered seating.

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.
