About this fabric

This Napoli colourway combines grey, brown and muted taupe threads, creating a cool, earthy shade with darker vertical variation visible across the swatch. The close chenille construction has a compact, subtly irregular texture that adds depth without introducing a bold motif. Made from 91% polyester and 9% viscose, the 138cm-wide fabric is classified as Contract upholstery grade. Aftercare is professional; it offers Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy and can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Pair the mottled taupe-grey tone with charcoal, warm stone or aged timber for quietly tailored seating. Its restrained vertical texture works particularly well on sofas, dining chairs and contract upholstery where a plain fabric needs added visual depth.

Use this restrained taupe-grey chenille to bring subtle woven depth to contract seating and contemporary 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.
