Teddy Chair - Soft, Luxurious & Custom-Made

Teddy Chair — Ultimate Comfort with a Soft Touch

A teddy chair is the most cuddly piece of furniture you can place in your living room or dining room. The soft, fluffy teddy fabric — also known as bouclé, alpine or pile fabric — gives the chair a warm, luxurious look that is both cozy and stylish. In the world of interior fabrics, teddy is currently one of the most sought-after materials: it combines the softness of cuddly plush with a mature, design-oriented character. At Industrial Home, you can fully customize your teddy chair through the Koopmans collection.

What is Teddy Fabric?

Teddy fabric is a soft pile fabric where the fibers are curled or stand upright — similar to the texture of a teddy bear, hence the name. The variants are numerous:

• Teddy pile: the classic version with even, slightly curling fibers. Extremely soft and pleasant to the touch.
• Bouclé: a textured wool or acrylic fabric with a distinctive loop structure. Bouclé has a slightly rougher, more organic appearance than teddy but is equally soft and luxurious. The Eames Lounge Chair in bouclé is an iconic example.
• Alpine fabric: a mountain wool-like fabric with a slightly denser pile. More structured than teddy, warm and robust.

What all variants have in common: they feel warm, they are visually richer than flat fabric, and they immediately give a chair a cozy, premium character.

Colors: From Beige to Midnight Blue

Teddy chairs are available in a wide color palette. The most popular colors with our customers:

• Beige / Natural: the most popular choice. Warm, neutral, fits any interior. Gives a Japandi or Scandinavian feel.
• Cognac / Camel: warm brown with an amber tint. Combines beautifully with mango wood or oak furniture.
• Sage Green: a muted, subdued green shade. Modern, trendy, suits natural and white interiors.
• Grey (light and dark): neutral and versatile. From light grey (almost white) to anthracite (almost black).
• Blue (midnight, petrol): rich blue tones that exude luxury and tranquility.
• Cream / Off-white: lighter than beige, refreshing, modern minimalist.

Combinations with the Dining Table

A teddy chair combines best with dining tables in a contrasting style:

• Beige teddy + oak dining table: warm and harmonious. The most popular combination for a Japandi or Scandinavian dining area.
• Grey teddy + matt black or concrete-look table: modern and well-balanced.
• Cognac teddy + walnut table: luxurious and rich in color.
• Green teddy + white ceramic table: fresh, modern, trendy.

Teddy Chair as an Armchair

Teddy fabric is not just for dining chairs. The same fabric and configuration options are available for armchairs — ideal in the living room next to a lamp and side table. A teddy armchair in beige or cognac next to a mango wood side table and a floor lamp is the perfect reading nook.

Maintenance of Teddy Chair Fabric

Teddy and bouclé fabric are quite easy to maintain:

• Vacuum the chair regularly with a soft upholstery attachment to remove dust and loose fibers.
• Dab stains immediately (do not rub) with a dry white cloth.
• For larger stains: lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap, dab gently.
• Allow to air dry completely — never use direct hot air (hair dryer or radiator).
• Steam cleaning can refresh the fabric — use a steam cleaner on a low setting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Teddy Chairs

Is teddy fabric suitable for households with pets or children?

Teddy fabric attracts hair, dust and fibers a little more easily than smooth fabric or leather. With pets, regular vacuuming is necessary. For families with young children, faux leather or a wipeable fabric variant may be more practical — but teddy looks so beautiful that many parents still choose it and are simply more careful.

Does teddy fabric pill (form small balls)?

Quality teddy fabric (such as the fabric in the Koopmans collection) has a minimal tendency to pill. Cheaper acrylic variants may show this over time. Vacuuming with a soft head and an anti-pilling shaver (lint remover) will fix pilling when it occurs.

Can I reorder the teddy chair in a different color if the fabric is out of stock?

Yes. Koopmans works with a wide range of fabrics and ensures re-delivery of the same fabric type and color when available. We recommend ordering multiple chairs at the same time to avoid color differences due to production batch variations.

How long does delivery of a configured Koopmans chair take?

Koopmans produces to order — usually 4–8 weeks. We communicate a specific delivery time upon order.
