About this fabric

Woven from 94% polyester and 6% acrylic, this 138cm-wide chenille has a compact, tactile texture suited to upholstery. The colour sits between warm taupe and muted greige, with closely spaced horizontal rows and small tonal flecks creating understated depth rather than a bold pattern. ELB3526 is rated for contract and domestic upholstery and is machine washable for practical everyday use. It has Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® flame retardancy and can be treated to contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm greige-taupe on a sofa, armchair or upholstered headboard where its quiet horizontal texture can soften stronger wood tones and richer accent colours. Pair it with chalky neutrals, warm oak or muted olive for a calm, layered scheme.

Its softly mottled taupe surface brings understated warmth to upholstered seating, headboards and occasional chairs.

Pairs well with

ELB3526 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.
