About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille has a compact, tactile texture suited to upholstery. The quiet lavender-grey tone is softened by tiny pale and darker threads, creating a restrained, mottled finish rather than a bright violet colour. GAR2208 is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery and is machine washable. It is supplied with Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy and can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this cool lilac-grey on a tailored sofa, occasional chair or upholstered headboard where its muted tone can sit comfortably with charcoal, chalky white, brushed metal and soft blue accents. The fine texture adds interest without introducing a prominent pattern.

A cool, heathered lilac chenille with a finely textured weave for tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

GAR2208 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.
