PAR4208 is a deep charcoal chenille with a subtle olive-green cast, giving the surface a quietly dimensional appearance. Its close, mottled weave catches fine flecks of lighter thread without forming a distinct motif.

About this fabric

Made from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille is specified for both contract and domestic upholstery. The dark grey ground is softened by olive undertones and a fine crosshatched texture, so it reads as layered rather than flat black. The raised chenille surface creates restrained tonal variation as the light moves across the cloth. It is machine washable and has Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy; it can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Pair PAR4208 with warm timber, aged brass and muted olive accents to draw out its green undertone, or use it against pale stone walls for a sharper charcoal contrast. Its quiet texture suits tailored sofas, dining chairs and upholstered headboards.

Use this deep charcoal-olive chenille to bring a grounded, tailored tone to sofas, dining chairs and occasional seating.

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.
