Ordering fabric by the metre: quantities, samples and production batches

Sold in whole metres

We sell our fabrics by the metre, in whole running metres. The price applies per metre of length across the full fabric width. The width is shown in the product details under “Format”, for example “137.2cm x 1.00 m”. We do not offer cutting to size. If you order 3 metres, you will receive the fabric in one piece of 3 metres.

Would you like ready-made curtains, Roman blinds or cushions? Then use our sewing service, see Price list sewing service.

Sample first, then fabric

Colours look different on screen than in the room, and no photo shows handle, weight and sheen. So please order a fabric sample before you buy. Look at it in daylight and in the evening under artificial light, right where the fabric will later hang or lie.

Production batches: why colours can vary slightly

Fabrics are dyed or printed in batches. The shade may vary slightly between two batches. This is normal in the industry and not a defect. For you this means:

• Order the full quantity for a project in one order.
• Rather plan one metre extra than buy more later.
• If you do need to reorder, tell us the batch number from the label of the first delivery. We will ask the manufacturer whether the same batch is still available.
• A sample may come from a different batch than the later delivery.

Check before cutting

Unroll the fabric completely when it arrives and check it in daylight for colour, weaving faults and printing faults before you or your soft furnisher cut it. Please report anything unusual before cutting via the contact form, ideally with a photo.

Delivery time

The delivery time is shown on every product page, for example “Delivery time 12–16 days”. Many fabrics are ordered from the manufacturer specially for you.
