Teddy Fabric

Teddy Chai is a softly warm camel-tan upholstery fabric with a dense, teddy-like surface. Its subtle tonal variation gives the plain ground a gently tactile, softly shaded appearance.

About this fabric

The colour sits between toasted beige and light caramel, with a mellow warmth that reads natural rather than bright. A close field of tiny irregular loops creates the fabric’s distinctive nubby texture, while fine tonal shifts add depth across the surface. The dense appearance makes this colourway particularly suited to upholstered furniture, where its quiet texture can be seen at close range. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Teddy Chai on a sofa, armchair or ottoman to bring a warm chai-tan note into a room with cream, timber and softly contrasting brown accents. Its muted surface also works well with woven throws and other tactile neutrals.

A warm, tactile neutral for relaxed upholstered seating and softly layered interiors.

Pairs well with

Teddy Chai 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.
