About this fabric

This chenille is woven from 52% acrylic and 48% polyester, with a 138cm width suited to domestic upholstery. The dominant garnet red has a warm, wine-like depth, while the contrasting olive, gold and blue-green details give the flowers a softly aged, tapestry-inspired character. Fine horizontal texture across the ground catches the light unevenly, adding dimension without overpowering the ornate floral motif. It is listed as Domestic upholstery grade with professional aftercare, and has Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy; it can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm garnet colourway on a statement armchair, footstool or traditional sofa where its olive and antique-gold foliage can sit alongside dark wood, aged brass and warm neutral walls. Keep surrounding textiles quieter to let the layered botanical pattern provide the room’s decorative focus.

A richly coloured chenille for upholstered seating, bringing layered botanical detail and warm, decorative depth to a room.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside IMP1589 without fighting it. 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.
