# Premium Arabic Jalsah in Cream and Light Gray with Gilded Ends

Rooms with little daylight are where a cream and gray majlis with gilded armrests earns its place: cream seats, light gray backrests and a gilded panel closing each run keep the walls bright. Seats are about 29.5 in (75 cm) deep, and no piece runs longer than 75 in (190 cm).

## Questions buyers ask

### How long does delivery take after my order ships to the US, Canada, the UK or Europe?

Transit is counted after dispatch rather than from the date of the first inquiry. Check the destination-specific delivery terms in your quote. Ask us for the delivery estimate to your country. Custom cutting and sewing need their production stage before the parcels begin transit.

### Do you make curtains that match the majlis fabric and colors?

Matching curtains are made to order alongside a majlis, in the same fabric family or a complementing color, cut to your window or wall size. A typical design layers a sheer, the main colored curtain and an optional decorative top, with a ceiling track for each. They are quoted as a separate line.

## What does a three-wall cream and gray order include?

| Item | Shade | Measurements |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Seat module | Cream | Up to 75 in (190 cm) long, about 29.5 in (75 cm) deep |
| Backrest | Light gray, two per full seat | 37.5 × 16 × 4 in (95 × 40 × 10 cm) |
| Corner backrest | Light gray | 23.5 × 16 × 4 in (60 × 40 × 10 cm) |
| Gilded armrest panel | Gold finish | One at each open end |
| Accent pillow | Cream or gold | Set by the designer |
| Cube tables | Gold and cream | Add-on, quoted separately |

Every seat and backrest is foam in its own zippered cover. On pale fabric, that is the detail that matters most. Cream and gray is one of the lighter palettes among our [Yemeni majlis rooms](https://orientalsofa.com/yemeni-majlis/).

## How do pale covers stay pale in daily use?

- Press a dry cloth onto a spill the moment it lands; rubbing spreads it.
- Unzip a marked cover; it can be machine-washed on a gentle 86°F (30°C) cycle.
- Hang it to dry, since a hot dryer can shrink it.
- If one window is very bright, move the most-used seat out of the strongest sun.

Shoes off at the door is the house rule I would pair with pale covers. Our guide to [washing covers and looking after the seats day to day](https://orientalsofa.com/arabic-sofa-care-guide/) has the longer routine.

> Turn the cushions with the seasons, the way you would rotate a mattress.

## How is a long room split into cream seats?

Long walls are divided into equal seats of no more than 75 in (190 cm). A 236 in (600 cm) wall takes four seats of 59 in (150 cm). Each seat carries two backrests, so the light gray runs in an even rhythm. Corners take one seat-depth off a side run. Doors, vents and heaters go on the sketch, and the drawing shows where each run stops.

Custom orders start with a layout plan for your approval.

## Warmer cream or cooler gray: how far can the palette move?

Each shade is chosen by number, so the cream can lean warmer and the gray cooler. Gold accents are optional; the armrest panels can stay gilded while everything else stays plain. Light rooms with gold trim and star tables are gathered under gold-detailed royal majlis styles.

Ask us about fabric swatches and a foam sample before you order.

## Which small weekly habit keeps cream seats bright?

One habit is enough. Once a week, look over the seat nearest the tables and lift any fresh mark before it settles. A mark caught early is the easiest one to lift.

Production time depends on your layout and the season — ask us for the current schedule. Fabric and foam are cut to the drawing. Custom orders are photographed and filmed for your approval before they ship.

## Frequently asked questions

### Are the gilded armrest panels included in the seating quote?

The seating quote covers seats, backrests, two styles of armrest and matching pillows, so the armrest ends are part of it. The gilded finish is a design choice; gold accents are optional and can be left off for a plainer run.

### Can the light gray backrests be made in cream to match the seats?

The backrests can be sewn in the same cream as the seats for a single-tone run, or in a deeper gray for more contrast. Pick both by their color-card numbers so the fabrics match the drawing.

### Is cream seating practical in a home with small children?

Cream works best with children when the covers come off for washing and the backrests are firm, fixed pieces, because loose pillow-style backs tend to end up on the floor. A spare cover for the most-used seat helps too.
