Wool Fabric
Wool brings a warmth and a soft, matte surface that is hard to match. It has a natural resilience and a comfortable weight, which makes it a lovely choice for upholstery, heavier curtains and cushions in rooms meant for winter evenings. This page includes pure wools and blends, among them mohair, cashmere and alpaca.
Sanderson offers a dedicated wool range in Islay Wools and Highgrove by Sanderson Wools. Harlequin includes wool in Kasuri Weaves and Sgraffito II, and Zoffany brings refined plains and weaves in Luxury Plains and Arcadian Weaves. Mark Alexander and Zinc Textile add a more contemporary, tactile take.
Wool suits checks, tartans and textured weaves especially well, and it layers happily with linen and velvet, adding a cosy, tailored note to a sitting room or study. If it is going on a sofa or a dining chair, the product details will show its rub test result and recommended use. Composition matters too: a blend may wear differently from a pure wool, so it is worth reading before you order.
