About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this chenille has a dense, napped texture that gives the brown taupe ground visible depth across the swatch. At 138cm wide, it is suitable for contract and domestic upholstery, making it a practical choice for upholstered furniture. The irregular tonal variation adds character without introducing a formal motif or repeat. NUO2049 is machine washable and has Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy; it can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this warm, earthy brown taupe on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its softly distressed-looking texture can balance pale woods, cream upholstery and darker bronze or walnut accents.

A softly mottled brown taupe chenille that brings depth to upholstered seating without a defined pattern.

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.
