Gobelin fabric is sold by the metre at BLADI. You can choose from the designs ARKI, SAMOS, SIROS, DELOS, MILO, Andros, CEA and LEVITA: sturdy jacquard-woven upholstery fabric in 45% polyester and 55% cotton, 330 g/m² and 140 cm wide. Suitable for chairs, sofas, cushions, curtains and wall panels.
What makes gobelin special?
With gobelin, the pattern is not printed onto the fabric but woven in with yarns of different colours on a jacquard loom. This makes the design visible on both sides and gives the fabric a rich, slightly raised texture. Gobelin belongs in classic and country interiors, but also adds a striking accent to a modern one.
- Abrasion resistance: all designs reach 18,000 Martindale rubs and are intended for furniture with light use, headboards, cushions, curtains and wall panels.
- Sample book: a sample book of gobelin fabrics is available for trade customers.
Tip: use gobelin as an eye-catcher on an armchair, dining chair or headboard, and combine it with plain velour or faux leather for the rest of the interior. Allow for the pattern when ordering, so the motif sits neatly centred on each seat.
Buying gobelin fabric by the metre
All our gobelin fabrics are 140 cm wide and are ordered by the metre. If you are covering a chair seat with gobelin, see fabrics for chairs for how much fabric you need. For scatter cushions with piping, sew braided piping cord into the seam. Gobelin can also be used to cover a wall: read how to go about it on our page about wall covering fabric.
