GAR2209 is a muted berry-plum chenille with a fine, close-woven surface and subtle vertical tonal movement. Its softly shaded colour reads as a restrained berry rather than a bright pink or saturated purple.

About this fabric

The chenille’s small-scale woven texture is clearly visible across the swatch, with delicate darker and lighter threads giving the plum tone gentle depth. Made from 100% polyester and supplied at 138cm wide, GAR2209 is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery. It is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy, with treatment available to achieve Crib 5 contract grade. The cool berry-plum shade has a softly dusky character that catches the light without becoming glossy.

How to use it

Use GAR2209 on an occasional chair, sofa or headboard where its dusky berry-plum tone can add depth without overwhelming the room. Pair it with warm neutrals, aged timber or soft blush accents to bring out the chenille’s subtle tonal variation.

The muted berry-plum chenille brings softly textured colour to upholstered seating in both contemporary and classic rooms.

Pairs well with

GAR2209 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.
