Garda FabricGAR2199

GAR2199 is a quiet warm taupe-grey chenille with a close, softly nubby surface. Fine light and darker fibres break up the solid shade, giving the swatch a gently heathered depth rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

This 100% polyester chenille has a close, tactile weave with fine vertical striations visible across the surface. Its warm stone-taupe ground is lifted by peppered lighter fibres, creating a softly mottled appearance that changes subtly as the pile catches the light. At 138cm wide, it is graded for Contract and Domestic upholstery. Aftercare is machine washable; flame retardancy is Domestic Cig & Match, with treatment available to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe-grey on sofas, dining chairs or ottomans in rooms built around stone, timber and softened neutral shades. The lightly flecked chenille texture helps plain upholstery feel considered without introducing a strong pattern.

Use the softly heathered taupe on tailored seating, where its nubby chenille texture adds quiet depth to neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

GAR2199 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.
