Why Choose Tan Chenille

What to Look For
When shopping for chenille upholstery fabric, check the fiber content, weight, and abrasion rating if one is listed. Heavier weaves suit high-traffic furniture, while lighter options drape well for curtains and throws. Review the care instructions too, since some chenilles call for professional cleaning.
