About this fabric

The swatch shows a fine, vertically varied weave in layered grey tones, creating a lightly striated surface rather than a printed motif. The colour reads as cool and silvery in the light, with darker threads adding quiet definition across the cloth. The supplied record lists Marabou Gris as a Fabric in Dedar’s Chenille fabrics collection, with no performance features noted. Its substantial woven appearance makes it particularly suited to tailored upholstery where subtle texture is preferred over shine or pattern.

How to use it

Use this cool grey on a structured armchair, headboard or sofa, pairing it with chalky whites, pale oak and brushed metal for a calm, contemporary scheme. Its fine vertical texture also sits comfortably alongside smooth leather or softly patterned cushions.

A cool grey chenille with subtle vertical texture for quietly tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Marabou Gris 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.
