Cotton fabric feature with trimming in topaz (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chintz

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cotton fabric' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'feature with trimming in topaz' is the wordplay.
'feature' becomes 'chin' (chin is a kind of feature).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'trimming in topaz' becomes 'tz' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'chin'+'tz'='CHINTZ'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chintz that I've seen before include "Curtain material" , "(Sometimes glazed) fabric cotton" , "Printed, patterned cotton fabric" , "Glazed cotton cloth with printed pattern" , "Cotton cloth with printed patterns used for furnishings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
