Felix
Mint
Felix is a luxuriously soft boucle fabric that is so inviting with its cosy vibe and welcoming warm softness. The yarns that have been combined to create this stunning texture are made from Australian and New Zealand wool blended with a small amount of acrylic and polyester. This blend creates a more durable fabric paired with wool it is resistant to moisture, soiling, compression and is comfortable in all seasons. The blended yarn used to weave this fabric also creates the dimensional subtle melange effect you see through this amazing palette dyed to our specifications in New Zealand. The palette was inspired by earthly muted tones that exude warmth and draw in the eye. These colours were chosen to echo the nature of the Australian environment and will inspire collaborations of textures in your home or office.
Composition: 80% wool, 15% acrylic, 5% nylon
Width: 137cm
GSM: 520
Pilling: 3-4
Seam Slippage: Pass
Martindale: 42,250

Styling Notes
- Upholsters beautifully working particularly well on curves as has natural elasticity and can hold shape well.
- Surface fuzz may appear like any wool, however due to the fibres construction these are likely to reseed back into the fabric with time.
- Well suited to armchairs, sofas and modulars. Not ideal for dining chairs, due to texture.
- Boucle yarn by nature could get caught in clawed rings or pulled by pet claws.
Care
Dry Clean Only
To protect your upholstered furniture and keep it looking fresh, follow these care tips:
Avoid Direct or Reflected Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading and deterioration. Keep your furniture away from windows, or use blinds/curtains to block harsh rays.
Regular Vacuuming: Use a vacuum with a non-rotating upholstery head to gently remove dust and dirt. If not removed regularly, dust and dirt can accumulate on the fabric. Over time, these particles can react with UV light, leading to fabric bleaching and causing the fabric to fade. To prevent this, it's essential to vacuum your furniture regularly and ensure any dirt or dust is promptly removed. Frequent vacuuming will also help remove loose fibres and foreign particles, which can reduce pilling (those little fuzzy balls that form on the surface).
Maintain Fabric Loft: For boucle and pile fabrics, regular vacuuming is essential to maintain the loft and prevent matting or flattening.
Rotate Cushions: If possible, rotate your cushions to ensure even wear. This will prevent certain areas from wearing out faster than others, keeping your furniture looking balanced.
Spill Management: Clean spills immediately by blotting (not rubbing) with a damp cloth. Avoid scrubbing, as it can damage the fabric. For tough stains, it’s best to consult a professional cleaning service to ensure safe and effective stain removal
Pilling: Pilling can occur as a result of normal daily wear and should not be considered a defect. Fibre pills form when loose fibres on the surface of the fabric become tangled. These pills can easily be removed using a battery-operated pilling tool, which is available at most haberdashery or fabric stores. Regular care can help minimize pilling and maintain appearance
Dye Transfer: Dye transfer is another consideration for fabric care. This occurs when dye from an external source, such as unwashed new dark-coloured denim or raw indigo garments, is transferred onto upholstery fabric. To avoid dye transfer, ensure any new dark fabrics are washed before coming into contact with your furniture.
Fabric Protection: To prolong the life of your fabric, we highly recommend having it protected by Premium Surface Protection (PSP). Please be aware that fabric protection methods can vary significantly in both their effectiveness and environmental impact. PSP is the only method endorsed by Jardan. Using an alternative fabric protection method may void your fabric warranty.

By following these tips, you can prolong the life and appearance of your furniture.
Please Note
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the colours depicted on our website of materials and products accurately reflect the way they appear in person, Jardan advises that there may be variation between these due to a combination of factors including computer monitor, screen settings and lighting as well as a level of true variation in the products themselves. We work with many natural materials as well as handmade artisan products where a level of variation is to be expected and celebrated. It is therefore recommended that you view products in person prior to ordering where possible, or request swatches and additional information from our sales teams.
