Lead Times are communicated to our retailers on a weekly basis which will be communicated to you at the time of ordering. From the time of placing an order, to the planned time of delivery we may experience changes to this information as a result delays in our supply chain due to raw materials shortages. Whilst these changes are out of our control and may happen at short notice, please rest assured that we do everything possible to minimise the impact on our customers. If a delay to your stated lead time becomes unavoidable, we will communicate this to your retailer at the earliest opportunity.

With a few hints and tips from us, your Collins & Hayes furniture will last for years to come. To find out how to care for your furniture, please download our care guide by clicking here.
Chenille fabrics are woven using a Chenille yarn. Chenille yarns consist of several strands of thread being twisted together, with short fibres running crossways trapped between them. It is these short fibres that create the pile effect. Chenille yarns are often used to create an uneven, random effect with a soft surface texture. The fabric is then tumbled to further add to the soft texture.
Shading may occur across the piece due to the pile running in different directions. For example, one arm may appear darker than the other. Chenille fabrics have more yarn joins, which appear on the surface and are a natural characteristic rather than a fault.
The thickness of Chenille yarn tends to vary slightly, creating a random unevenness to the surface. This may appear as slightly raised lines across the fabric and should not be confused with rogue yarns. These sometimes occur as faults in other fabrics. Chenille fabrics can be subject to ‘pile movement’, particularly in areas of frequent use. This can create a shading look which is a natural characteristic and not a fault of the fabric. It is a feature that builds the character of the furniture as it is used. As Chenille & Velvet-style fabrics may change appearance after use, it is possible to restore the pile to its original position by brushing the fabric regularly with a soft brush.
All the fabrics within the Collins & Hayes collection are available to purchase through your nearest retailer as cut lengths and can be supplied to the nearest half metre. Leather is not available as cut length.
Once you have ordered your fabric samples from our website it will take up to 10 working days to be delivered.
Our fabrics may vary very slightly from batch to batch due to the production process. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the exact shade, but it will be as close to your swatch as possible.
Regretfully this is not a service that Collins & Hayes offer. You may be able to enquire locally of an independent upholsterer who could do this for you on a private basis.
