Description
23HD-TD005 is a curly lamb velvet on a 220gsm pile face with a 50gsm pongee reverse, recorded at a 270gsm total. It is the lightest of three backings used on this face, and that shows up as drape: at 270gsm the cloth falls and gathers rather than standing up on its own. The face carries a small tight curl that gives a lamb-like texture instead of a straight pile, so pieces read textured and matte rather than glossy. Because the composite stays thin, it gathers cleanly around a piped edge and takes a zip without puckering, which is what a removable slipcover needs. It suits pouf slipcovers, footstool covers, and decorative pillows, where softness and drape matter more than body. On a seat that takes constant load, a heavier backing is the better choice. Confirm usable width, pile height, and composition on a physical sample.

Fit and Confirmation Boundary
The face weight, backing, and total weight are identical in both records, and 220+50=270 checks out exactly, so the construction is reliable. Usable width, yield, and any finishing step are not recorded anywhere, so this listing makes no width claim and the Shopify width field should stay unset until the quotation confirms it. Pile height is also unrecorded; on a curl fabric it is the first figure buyers ask for, so it needs measuring on a sample. The tag note "华德利" is a dyehouse reference, not a customer or a process, and it does not describe the fabric. Abrasion, colorfastness, and fiber composition are not recorded. The pile imitates lamb, so any listing, sample card, or label for this quality carries the word Faux.
Common Questions
How does this differ from 23HD-TD004 and 23HD-TD007?
All three use the same 220gsm curl face. TD005 carries a 50gsm pongee reverse at 270gsm total, TD007 a 60gsm reverse at 280gsm, and TD004 a 70gsm reverse at 290gsm.
Is 270gsm too light for upholstery?
It is the lightest of the three and is best on slipcovers, footstool covers, and pillows. For a seat under constant load, choose a heavier backing.
