Buying fabric or wallpaper online always involves a leap of faith — but it doesn't have to. A sample gives you the full picture: the exact colourway under your own lighting, how the fabric drapes or the wallpaper sits against your wall, and whether it's right for your project.
For upholstery and wallpapering especially, getting the sample right before ordering metres or rolls is always worth it. And at £4 a sample, it's the easiest decision you'll make.
Check the colour
Screen colours are never exact. See the true colourway under your own light before committing.
Feel the handle
Velvet, linen, embossed wallpaper — each has a distinct weight and feel. A sample tells you what no photo can.
Order with confidence
When you do order by the metre or the roll, you'll know exactly what's arriving. No surprises, no returns.

Sample FAQs
Do I really get the £4 back when I order the full thing?
Yes. When you return to order the full fabric by the metre or wallpaper by the roll, your previous sample purchase is credited automatically against the order — no codes, no claiming. Up to six samples can be credited (£24 maximum). You'll need to be logged into the same account you used to order the samples.
Is delivery on samples really free?
Yes — samples-only orders ship free, 48-hour tracked via Royal Mail. There's no minimum order and no coupon to apply. If your order also contains full fabric, wallpaper or a homeware item, normal shipping applies to the whole order.
How big are the samples?
Fabric samples are 20cm × 10cm. Wallpaper samples are A5 (148mm × 210mm). Both are sized to give you a proper feel for the print, the colour, and the handle.
Can I order samples in multiple colourways of the same design?
Absolutely. Each colourway is ordered separately on the product page — just select the colour, choose Sample, add to cart, then change the colour and add again. There's no minimum or maximum number of samples per order.
Are the samples cut from the same printed run as the full fabric or wallpaper?
Yes — every fabric sample is cut from the same printed run, and every wallpaper sample is taken directly from the wallpaper rolls themselves. What you see is exactly what you'll get at full size.
How long do samples take to arrive?
Samples are stocked items — they ship 48-hour tracked, typically arriving within 1–2 working days of your order. There's no print run to wait for.
Can I get samples for both fabric and wallpaper in the same order?
Yes — mix and match as many fabric and wallpaper samples as you like. Each sample is £4 and they ship together.
I'm a trade customer — can I get the swatch hangers instead?
Yes — if you're an upholsterer, interior designer, or independent maker, the Trade Club swatch hangers give you all 18 designs in a professional large-format velvet swatch for £50. Find out more about the Trade Club →
