About this fabric

This Dedar chenille fabric is woven in a light Avorio shade that sits between warm ivory and soft cream. The close, even weave is enlivened by delicate horizontal striations, while tiny shifts in the yarn create a subtly tactile finish. Its calm, low-contrast appearance makes the texture more noticeable up close than from a distance. As a versatile fabric, it can be considered for both upholstery and drapery where a pale, textural neutral is wanted.

How to use it

Use this warm ivory colourway on a tailored armchair, headboard or relaxed sofa, pairing it with pale timber and natural stone. Its fine horizontal texture also gives understated softness to curtains in a light, neutral room.

A softly textured ivory chenille with fine horizontal movement, suited to calm upholstery and light-filtering drapery schemes.

Smilla Avorio 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.
