Tapestry Fabric

Tapestry fabric is traditionally woven for decorative use — ideal for upholstery curtains, cushions, wall hangings and accessories. Its dense weave makes it durable yet beautifully detailed, perfect for creating heirloom-style pieces or refreshing vintage furniture.

William Morris tapestry fabrics are inspired by the Arts & Crafts movement, featuring nature-led patterns and intricate craftsmanship. They combine rich colour palettes with historical design heritage, making them sought-after for both classic and contemporary interiors.

Yes — the weight and strength of tapestry fabric make it an excellent choice for upholstery. It’s particularly suited to armchairs, footstools and cushions. For extra protection, consider a fire-retardant finish if your project requires compliance with safety standards, most of our fabrics can be treated (please get in touch for further details).

Most tapestry fabrics should be gently vacuumed to remove dust and spot-cleaned when needed. Always check individual product instructions, and avoid soaking or harsh cleaning agents. For long-term care guidance, see our fabric care inspiration guides.

Tapestry pairs beautifully with plain velvets or relaxed linen fabrics for balance. Try echoing colours from your William Morris tapestry piece in other textiles or trims to achieve a cohesive, layered look across your interior scheme.
