About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille has a compact, tactile texture that reads as softly speckled rather than patterned. The colour sits between blue and green, with a greyed aqua base that keeps the overall effect calm and understated. Small variations in the yarn catch the light across the surface, giving the shade gentle depth without a strong directional motif. GAR2212 is suitable for contract and domestic upholstery and is machine washable. It carries domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy and can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this muted blue-teal on a contemporary sofa, footstool or dining chair where its cool aqua-grey tone can be balanced with warm timber, natural oak or soft cream walls. Pair it with charcoal accents to pick up the darker flecks in the weave.

A cool, quietly mottled blue-teal chenille for sofas, dining chairs and occasional upholstery.

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.
