Missori Teja upholstery

The Missori Teja upholstery fabric is a plain weave fabric with an elegant visible weft texture and a subtle marl effect that combines softness, durability and a warm, natural aesthetic. Its terracotta shade, with reddish and brown undertones inspired by clay and terracotta, adds character and sophistication to any space, making it an excellent choice for upholstering furniture and making up decorative fabric accessories.

The Missori collection by Rioma stands out for its soft handle, its full-bodied structure and its high resistance to wear and tear. With 50,000 Martindale cycles, it is abrasion-resistant and offers excellent durability, making it particularly suitable for sofas, armchairs, lounge chairs and chairs subject to frequent use. Its surface features an interwoven weft with subtle colour nuances that lend visual depth and an elegant textile finish, whilst retaining the versatility of a plain design.

Made from 100% polyester, this fabric offers a practical composition for interior design and upholstery projects. Its width of 140 cm and its weight (gsm) of 535 give it a substantial presence, making it particularly suitable for upholstered furniture, decorative cushions and full-bodied curtains.

Sewing and upholstery tip: when working with this 535 gsm fabric, it is recommended to start with a universal needle or thick needle (90/14 or 100/16), durable polyester thread and a medium stitch length, having first carried out a test on a remnant of fabric. For upholstery, it is advisable to check the thickness of the layers and the machine’s feed capacity. For cushions, we recommend finishing the edges with overcasting or overlocking and ensuring the texture runs in the same direction across all pieces.

Decorating tip: the terracotta shade is perfect for adding warmth to spaces with a natural, Mediterranean or contemporary feel.

It can be used as a focal point on an armchair or sofa, or incorporated through cushions and curtains to add a splash of colour. Combined with unbleached textiles and light woods, it creates cosy atmospheres, whilst paired with dark shades it provides an elegant contrast.

Care: wash at a maximum temperature of 40 °C, do not bleach, do not tumble dry and iron on a soft heat. The manufacturer also recommends dry cleaning with perchloroethylene. Always follow the fabric’s care instructions and the specific instructions for the upholstered furniture.
