Fresco FabricFRE4439

FRE4439 is a quietly distinctive mauve-purple chenille with a close, finely ridged surface. Its dusky plum tone reads soft and muted rather than bright, giving the plain weave subtle depth as the light moves across it.

About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille has a compact surface with a delicate diagonal rib that is clearly visible in the close-up image. The colour sits between dusty mauve and soft plum, with a cool, subdued character rather than a saturated purple appearance. Its specification covers contract, domestic and outdoor upholstery, while contract flame retardancy supports use in commercial seating schemes. FRE4439 is also machine washable for practical aftercare.

How to use it

Use this dusky mauve-purple on a contemporary sofa, dining chair or occasional seat where its restrained colour can add depth without dominating the room. Pair it with warm grey, putty, aged timber or brushed metal to bring out the chenille’s subtle woven variation.

Use this softly muted mauve chenille to bring refined colour and fine woven texture to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

FRE4439 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.
