FABRIC SWATCH

Buying a bed online has one small catch, you cannot reach out and feel the fabric before you commit. Our Fabric Swatch service solves exactly that. For just £2.99, we will send you a physical sample of your chosen fabric and colour so you can see, touch, and judge it properly in your own home before you order your bed.

A photograph on a screen can only tell you so much. Colours shift under different lighting, textures read differently in person, and the true feel and quality of a fabric is something you really need in your hands. With a swatch, you can hold the sample against your walls, flooring, curtains, and bedding, check how the shade looks in your room's natural and evening light, and feel the pile, weave, and weight of the fabric for yourself. It is the easiest way to order with total confidence and avoid any surprises.

Swatches are especially worthwhile for our velvet ranges, where the pile catches light and the colour can shift subtly through the day, and for softer, paler shades where getting the exact tone right really matters. Order a sample of a single shade, or a few of your favourites side by side, and take your time choosing. A small step that makes a big difference to getting your new bed exactly right.

Choose any shade from the ranges above to sample. If you have a shortlist of two or three, it is well worth ordering them together so you can compare them side by side in your own light. Ranges and colours may vary, please check the current options at checkout.

Your fabric swatch is sent out to you by post, so it arrives quickly and needs no assembly, simply select the fabric and colour you would like to sample, add it to your order, and it will be on its way. We currently deliver within the UK. If you would like to sample several shades, add each one you would like to compare. Get in touch with the Macba Beds team if you need any help choosing which fabrics to request.

Q: What exactly is a fabric swatch?

A: It is a small physical sample of one of our upholstery fabrics in the colour of your choice. It lets you see the true shade, feel the texture and quality, and check how the fabric looks in your own room before you order a bed.

Q: How much does it cost?

A: A fabric swatch is just £2.99, a small cost for the confidence of knowing exactly what you are ordering before you buy a full bed.

Q: Which fabrics and colours can I sample?

A: You can sample any shade from our fabric ranges, including Plush Velvet, Naples, Boucle, Linoso, and Marble, across all of their available colours. See the Fabric Ranges section above for the full list.

Q: Can I order more than one swatch?

A: Yes. If you are torn between a few shades, we recommend ordering each of them so you can compare them side by side in your own light. Simply add each colour you would like to sample to your order.

Q: Why should I order a swatch before buying a bed?

A: Screens can never show a fabric perfectly, colours shift under different lighting and textures feel different in person. A swatch lets you check the exact tone against your walls, flooring, and bedding, and feel the quality in your hands, so you can order your bed with complete confidence and avoid any surprises.

Q: Do I have to order a swatch before buying a bed?

A: Not at all, it is entirely optional. If you already know the fabric and colour you want, you can order your bed directly. The swatch is simply there for anyone who would like to see and feel the fabric first.

Q: How is it delivered and how long does it take?

A: Swatches are sent out by post and typically arrive quickly. You will just need a UK delivery address. If you have any questions about your order, the Macba Beds team is happy to help.

Q: I have chosen my fabric, what next?

A: Once your swatch has helped you decide, simply head to the bed you would like, select the matching fabric and colour, and place your order. If you would like a hand, the Macba Beds team can guide you through choosing the right fabric and size.
