About Us
The Fabric House is an exciting, new concept store in Cape Town , Johannesburg and Pretoria which offers quality furnishing base cloths, “hand-picked” short ends, remnants and end-of-roll soft furnishing fabrics (curtaining and upholstery) at prices that have never been enjoyed before in South Africa. Our fabrics are sourced via local and international fabric houses and textile convertors.
The Fabric House concept is based on the current furnishing trend, whereby it is possible to select a more affordable quality base cloth in the colour and texture of your choice. This enables our clients to select “Exquisite Cuts” of beautiful imported short ends as the cushions to compliment. It’s the best of both worlds.
At The Fabric House we spend our time researching and sourcing fabrics which are available locally within a reasonable price range. When it comes to upholstry and curtaining, the secret is to buy an affordable and perhaps local fabric as the base cloth and then use beautiful imported “gourmet” fabrics on the cushions and accessories. This concept allows the client space in their budget for a new selection of cushions every year or two, or the luxury of changing their colour scheme each season.
When you pop in at The Fabric House, we will walk you through making your choice of our wide range of beautiful velvets, silks, cottons or linens to accessorise your suite. Whats more, is if you bring in a clear photograph of your existing scheme. We will guide you in selecting a suitable textured cloth as the inexpensive new base cover, then have some fun with colour and texture when selecting your cushions. By directing you to an experienced upholsterer or curtain workshop, we will ensure the entire process runs smoothly and at the right price.
Visit The Fabric House soon. We are experienced, friendly and creative, and waiting to assist you.
