Broadcloth is a tightly woven and felted woollen base cloth, regarded for its lustrous quality and sheen, perfect for accentuating the curves and folds of upholstered furniture and drapery. Its diverse colour palette ensures versatility of project use from modern colour statement pieces to relaxed neutral havens. Roman soldiers brought the original Broadcloth quality to England where an English King later refined it to the smooth soft fabric it is today. The term ‘broadcloth’ was used to denote the width which was greater than any other standard fabric, and today Hainsworth Broadcloth is the widest woollen faced fabric on the market at 220cms.
