From the far side of a room it reads as a plain; from a metre away it does not. The weft is deliberately irregular, so the surface carries movement without carrying a pattern that has to be matched or centred, which is what the trade means by a faux uni.
A flocked chenille weft gives the hand, and it is far softer than 50,000 Martindale rubs would lead you to expect. Soft to sit on and hard to wear out is the argument for putting it on a sofa rather than a chair that is only looked at. Twenty shades, 135 cm wide, 489 g, made in Italy.
