Which fabric is described as having a colorful design and good tenacity, used for upholstery and jackets?

• A. Bird's eye pique
• B. Eye pique
• C. Jacquard Upholstery
• D. Tapestry

Answer: (D)

Colorful designs combined with strong durability point to tapestry. Tapestry is a heavy, decorative weave that can carry intricate, multicolored patterns produced on a jacquard loom, giving it vivid designs. Its dense structure provides good tenacity and abrasion resistance, which is why it’s commonly used for upholstery and can also appear in heavier jacket fabrics. Bird’s eye and eye pique are lighter, textured weaves suited to apparel rather than upholstery, and jacquard upholstery refers to patterned fabrics made for furniture but doesn’t inherently emphasize the bold, varied color schemes tapestry is known for.
