About this fabric

The dense chenille weave creates a tactile, finely pebbled texture rather than a printed pattern, with lighter and darker threads giving the taupe-grey colour gentle depth. Made from 100% rPET, this 138cm-wide fabric is specified for both contract and domestic upholstery. Machine-washable aftercare makes it a practical choice for frequently used seating. It has Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® flame retardancy and can be treated to contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe-grey on sofas, dining chairs or headboards where its restrained brown-grey tone can soften sharper architectural finishes. Pair it with off-white, muted stone and dark timber for a quietly tailored scheme.

The softly flecked taupe-grey chenille brings understated warmth and tactile depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

MES3801 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.
