Fabrics

Ashley Manor fabrics, your way

Every Danbury and Matteo suite is upholstered in Ashley Manor fabrics. Pair a plain body fabric with patterned or textured cushions, or keep it all one colour. Tap the fabrics you like in each collection above and they’ll be added to your quote request, or tell us the look you’re after and we’ll talk you through the combinations.

Fabrics are grouped into price bands, so the band you choose affects the price. Colours on screen are a guide only, and shades can vary slightly between fabric rolls.

Questions

Good to know

How long does it take?

Each suite is made to order. Allow around 4–6 weeks from order.

How much does it cost?

Danbury starts from £899 for a love chair, and Matteo from £799 for the Lyla swivel chair. The price depends on the pieces, back style and fabric bands you choose, so send us your choices for an exact quote.

Will it fit through my door?

Check the access diagonal for Danbury pieces in the table above against your narrowest doorway, or give us a call and we’ll help you check.

Can I mix fabrics?

Yes. Each collection has separate covers for the body and cushions, so you can create your own combination.

What feet can I have?

Both collections come with a choice of Mid Oak or Walnut feet.
