Snooker table fabric (5)
I believe the answer is:
baize
'snooker table fabric' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for baize that I've seen before include "Table covering material" , "Billiards cloth" , "Fabric on snooker table" , "Surface for 9" , "Snooker table surface" .)
