Luxury Upholstery Fabrics: What Makes Them Stand Out?
When it comes to transforming a space, upholstery fabric plays a crucial role in setting the tone, style, and comfort of the room. But what exactly makes luxury upholstery fabrics stand out from the rest? At Saint and Poet Upholstery Fabrics, we specialize in high-end printed upholstery fabrics that offer both beauty and durability. Let’s explore the features that distinguish luxury fabrics and why they’re worth the investment.
The foundation of any luxury fabric is the quality of the basecloth it is printed on. Upholstery fabrics designed for luxury interiors often feature a mix of natural fibers and performance blends to ensure both beauty and longevity. At Saint and Poet, our fabrics are crafted with a premium basecloth composition of 47% Linen, 40% Cotton, and 13% Nylon, striking the perfect balance between natural softness and durability. This unique blend not only enhances the luxurious feel of the fabric but also ensures superior durability and colour fastness, making our fabrics ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
Luxury is not just about the materials but also the craftsmanship. High-end upholstery fabrics are designed with meticulous attention to detail, and at Saint and Poet, we pride ourselves on focusing on the quality of the print and finish. Using our advanced high-heat Monti machine, we fix the ink to the basecloth with precision, ensuring vibrant, long-lasting colours. This process results in a Martindale rub count of 35,000+, delivering contract-level durability that ensures our fabrics perform beautifully over time, even in high-traffic areas. Every design is flawless, with sharp lines and bold colours that exude sophistication. To learn more about our manufacturing process, visit our Manufacturing page.
One of the hallmarks of luxury is exclusivity. With luxury upholstery fabrics, it’s common to find one-of-a-kind designs or limited-edition prints. At Saint and Poet, we take this a step further by offering custom printed upholstery fabric, allowing you to create bespoke pieces tailored to your personal taste or specific project needs. Whether you’re designing for a grand hotel or updating your living room, our unique prints will elevate any space.
While luxury fabrics are known for their beauty, they’re also made to last. High-end upholstery fabrics offer superior durability, ensuring they stand the test of time, even in high-traffic areas. At Saint and Poet, all of our printed fabrics are not only visually striking but also engineered for exceptional strength and resilience. We achieve Grade A colour fastness and Grade A resistance to tearing, ensuring our fabrics maintain their vibrant hues and withstand the demands of everyday use. This makes our fabrics perfect for everything from busy family homes to upscale commercial environments, combining both style and lasting performance.
Luxury fabrics aren’t just for sofas and chairs—they can be used for various applications, including curtains, blinds, cushions, and more. Saint and Poet’s fabrics are versatile enough to be used across all upholstery projects, adding a touch of elegance and luxury to any room. Whether you’re reupholstering a vintage armchair or creating custom window treatments, our fabrics will bring your vision to life.
Luxury upholstery fabrics are an investment in both style and longevity. They provide unmatched quality, unique designs, and superior performance, making them well worth the premium.
