Fontibre Chenille is a plain chenille with a notably soft handle, the companion cloth to the Fontibre group, offering the same steady usefulness with a gentler, brushed surface. It is the kind of plain a room rests on, colour delivered as texture, nothing demanding attention.
It is woven in Italy from viscose and cotton with linen and polyester, 140 centimetres wide and substantial at 525 grams per square metre, the pile giving the colour a soft depth that flat weaves lack.
With a Martindale figure of 48,000 rubs it is comfortably up to family sofas, armchairs and stools in daily service, and it makes warm, heavy curtains where a plain of real substance is wanted.
