Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	2. Significant Accounting Policies As of November 3, 2019, there were no changes in the nature of our significant accounting policies or the application of those policies from those reported in our annual report on Form 10-K , except as discussed below. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases , Topic 842 allows the election of several practical expedients as part of adopting this new standard. We elected the “package of practical expedients” which permits us not to reassess, under Topic 842, our previous conclusions regarding lease identification and classification. We did not elect the use of hindsight with respect to determining the lease term. Also, Topic 842 provides practical expedients after adopting the new standard. We elected the short-term lease exemption, and therefore, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases shorter than twelve months. We did not elect the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease non-lease The adoption of Topic 842 had a material effect on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and increased the required disclosures in our notes to the consolidated financial statements (see note 19 for further details). The most significant effect related to the recognition of ROU assets totaling $7.2 million that were mostly offset by the recognition of lease liabilities totaling $7.1 million in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of Topic 842 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Statements of Net Income or Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and currently believes there are no recent accounting pronouncements that may have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

This tradename was determined to have an indefinite useful life and, therefore, is not being amortized. Equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from five ten The goodwill related to this acquisition is attributable to eLuxury’s reputation with the products it offers and management’s experience in e-commerce, direct-to-consumer As mentioned above, the Equity Agreement contains a contingent consideration arrangement that requires us to pay the seller, who is also the owner of the noncontrolling interest, an earn-out earn-out Non-Controlling The Equity Agreement contains substantive profit-sharing arrangement provisions which explicitly state the ownership interests at the effective date of this business combination and the allocation of net income or loss between Culp , holder holder , 20 70 30 , holder Based on the terms of the Equity Agreement, we believe the related risks associated with the ownership interests are aligned and therefore, the total consideration of $18.1 million for the 80% controlling interest provides information for the equity value of eLuxury as a whole, and is useful in estimating the Hypothetical-Liquidation-At-Book-Value 4.4 4.5 Other Acquisitions costs totaling $ 270,000 six-month Pro Forma Financial Information The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three-month and six-month Three Months Ended (dollars in thousands, except per share data) November 3, 2019 October 28, 2018 Net Sales $ 72,619 $ 77,006 Income from operations 3,983 4,284 Net income 2,192 2,944 Net loss (income) - noncontrolling interest 108 (11 ) Net income – Culp Inc. common shareholders 2,300 2,933 Net income per share (basic) – Culp Inc. common shareholders 0.19 0.23 Net income per share (diluted) – Culp Inc. common shareholders 0.19 0.23 Six Months Ended (dollars in thousands, except per share data) November 3, 2019 October 28, 2018 Net Sales $ 147,466 $ 151,604 Income from operations 6,672 6,357 Net income 3,366 3,883 Net loss (income) - noncontrolling interest 272 (11 ) Net income – Culp Inc. common shareholders 3,638 3,872 Net income per share (basic) – Culp Inc. common shareholders 0.29 0.31 Net income per share (diluted) – Culp Inc. common shareholders 0.29 0.31 The unaudited pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would actually have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of that time, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). Determining where an asset or liability falls within that hierarchy depends on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. An adjustment to the pricing method used within either level 1 or level 2 inputs could generate a fair value measurement that effectively falls in a lower level in the hierarchy. The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows: Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Inputs other than level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable ; Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use. Recurring Basis The following table presents information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis: Fair value measurements at November 3, 2019 using: Quoted prices Significant other Significant (amounts in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Premier Money Market Fund $ 7,133 N/A N/A $ 7,133 Growth Allocation Fund 222 N/A N/A 222 Moderate Allocation Fund 132 N/A N/A 132 Other 88 N/A N/A 88 Fair value measurements at October 28, 2018 using: Quoted prices Significant other Significant (amounts in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Premier Money Market Fund $ 6,943 N/A N/A $ 6,943 Large Blend Fund 422 N/A N/A 422 Growth Allocation Fund 175 N/A N/A 175 Moderate Allocation Fund 114 N/A N/A 114 Other 197 N/A N/A 197 Fair value measurements at April 28, 2019 using: Quoted prices Significant other Significant (amounts in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Premier Money Market Fund $ 6,639 N/A N/A $ 6,639 Growth Allocation Fund 203 N/A N/A 203 Moderate Allocation Fund 127 N/A N/A 127 Other 112 N/A N/A 112 The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter based on various factors and it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, we expect that changes in classifications between different levels will be rare. Short-Term and Long-Term Investments - Held-To-Maturity Our investments classified as held-to-maturity held-to-maturity , held-to-maturity , were At April 28, 2019, and October 28, 2018, our held-to-maturity held-to-maturity Our U.S. corporate bonds were classified as level 2 , Long-Term Investments - Rabbi Trust We have a Rabbi Trust to set aside funds for participants of our deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) , These long-term investments are recorded at their fair values of $7.6 million, $7.9 million, and $7.1 million at November 3, 2019, October 28, 2018, and April 28, 2019, respectively. Our long-term investments had an accumulated unrealized gain of $55,000, $62,000, and $40,000 at November 3, 2019, October 28, 2018, and April 28, 2019, respectively.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	17. Income Taxes Effective Income Tax Rate We recorded income tax expense of $3.6 million, or 51.5% of income before income taxes, for the six- six-month six-month The following schedule summarizes the principal differences between income tax expense at the U.S. federal income tax rate and the effective income tax rate reflected in the consolidated financial statements: 2020 2019 U.S. federal income tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 % Global Intangible Low Taxed Income Tax (GILTI) 17.3 2.1 Foreign income tax rate differential 10.2 7.8 Tax effects of Chinese foreign exchange gains 2.4 2.8 Change in estimate of U.S. valuation allowance 0.8 1.2 Other (0.2 ) 0.2 51.5 % 35.1 % The increase in our effective income tax rate reflects the continued shift in the mix of our taxable income that is mostly earned by our foreign operations located in China and Canada at higher income tax rates in relation to the U.S. More importantly , this current mix of our taxable income has resulted in a significant increase in our GILTI Tax, which represents a U.S. income tax on our foreign earnings. Deferred Income Taxes Valuation Allowance In accordance with ASC Topic 740, we evaluate our deferred income taxes to determine if a valuation allowance is required. ASC Topic 740 requires that companies assess whether a valuation allowance should be established based on the consideration of all available evidence using a “more-likely-than-not” jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction Based on our assessments at November 3, 2019, October 28, 2018, and April 28, 2019, valuation allowances against our deferred income taxes pertain to the following jurisdictions: (dollars in thousands) November 3, 2019 October 28, 2018 April 28, 2019 U.S. state loss carryforwards and credits $ 711 756 666 U.S. foreign income tax credits — 4,550 82 $ 711 5,306 748 Undistributed Earnings In accordance with ASC Topic 740, we assess whether the undistributed earnings from our foreign subsidiaries will be reinvested indefinitely or eventually distributed to our U.S. parent company. ASC Topic 740 requires that a deferred tax liability should be recorded for undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries that will not be reinvested indefinitely. Based on our assessment as of November 3, 2019, it is our intention not to permanently invest our undistributed earnings from our foreign subsidiaries. Also, we assess the recognition of U.S. foreign income tax credits associated with foreign withholding and income tax payments and whether it is more-likely-than-not more-likely-than-not As a result of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, a U.S. corporation is allowed a 100% dividend received deduction for earnings and profits received from a 10% owned foreign corporation. Therefore, a deferred tax liability will be required for withholding taxes that are incurred by our foreign subsidiaries at the time earnings and profits are distributed. As a result, at November 3, 2019, October 28, 2018, and April 28, 2019, we recorded a deferred income tax liability of $3.2 million, $3.1 million, and $3.5 million, respectively, for withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and profits from our foreign subsidiaries. Uncertainty In Income Taxes In accordance with ASC Topic 740, an unrecognized income tax benefit for an uncertain income tax position can be recognized in the first interim period if the more-likely-than-not At November 3, 2019, we had a $914,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit that was recorded to income taxes payable- long-term in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. At October 28, 2018, we had a $820,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit, of which $440,000 and $380,000 were classified as income taxes payable – long-term and non-current non-current At November 3, 2019, our $914,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. At October 28, 2018, our $820,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit included $440,000 that, if recognized, would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. At April 28, 2019, our $903,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit included $523,000 that, if recognized, would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. Our gross unrecognized income tax benefit of $914,000 relates to income tax positions for which significant change is currently not expected within the next year. This amount primarily relates to double taxation under applicable income tax treaties with foreign tax jurisdictions.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	18. Stock-Based Compensation Equity Incentive Plan Description On September 16, 2015, our shareholders approved an equity incentive plan entitled the Culp, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). The 2015 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units, and other equity and cash related awards as determined by our Compensation Committee. An aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock were authorized for issuance under the 2015 Plan, with certain sub-limits At November 3, 2019, there were 886,298 shares available for future equity-based grants under our 2015 plan. Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units Executive Management We grant performance-based restricted stock units to certain senior executives which could earn up to a certain number of shares of common stock if certain performance targets are met over a three-fiscal year performance period as defined in the related restricted stock unit agreements. The number of shares of common stock that are earned based on the performance targets that have been achieved will be adjusted based on a market-based total shareholder return component as defined in the related restricted stock unit agreements. Compensation cost for share-based awards of awards The following table provides assumptions used to determine the fair market value of the market-based shareholder return component of awards during fiscal year the below were awarded Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Closing price of our common stock $18.49 $ 24.35 $ 32.50 Expected volatility of our common stock 30.0% 33.5 % 31.0 % Expected volatility of peer companies (1) (2) 29.9% - 82.3% 16.0 % 16.5 % Risk-free interest rate 1.73% 2.74 % 1.56 % Dividend yield 2.10% 1.35 % 1.66 % Correlation coefficient of peer companies (1) (2) 0.00 – 0.43 0.47 0.46 (1) The expected volatility and correlation coefficient of our peer companies for fiscal 2020 were based on peer companies that were approved by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors as an aggregate (2) The expected volatility and correlation coefficient of our peer companies for fiscal 2019 and 2018 were based on the Russell 2000 Index which was approved by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors as the benchmark for determining the market-based total shareholder return component. Since the Russell 2000 Index was the only benchmark for determining the market-based total shareholder return component, no ranges were disclosed for these assumptions. Key Employees and a Non-Employee We grant performance-based restricted stock units which could earn up to a certain number of shares of common stock if certain performance targets are met over a three-fiscal year performance period as defined in the related restricted stock unit agreements. Our performance-based restricted stock units granted to key employees were measured based on the fair market value (the closing price of our common stock) on the date of grant. No market-based total shareholder return component was included in these awards.

Assets and Liabilities, Lessee [Abstract]
Leases	19. Leases Overview We lease manufacturing facilities, office space, distribution centers, and equipment under operating lease arrangements. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at its inception if it conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the commencement date of a lease arrangement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our operating leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 6 years, with renewal options for additional periods ranging up to 10 years. A lease term may include renewal options if it is reasonably certain that the option to renew a lease period will be exercised. A renewal option is considered reasonably certain to be exercised if there is a significant economic incentive, as defined in Topic 842, to exercise the renewal option on the date a lease arrangement is commenced. Currently, renewal options are not included in the lease terms for any of our leases, as there is not a significant economic incentive for us to exercise any of our renewal options. For these contracts, an estimated incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) is utilized, based on information available at the inception of the lease. The IBR represents an estimate of the interest rate we would incur at the lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of the lease. Balance Sheet The right of use asset and lease liabilities associated with our operating leases as of November 3, 2019, and April 29, 2019, are as follows: (dollars in thousands) November 3, 2019 (1) Right of use asset $ 5,879 $ 7,191 Operating lease liability - current 2,282 2,629 Operating lease liability – noncurrent 3,439 4,473 (1) Represents adoption date of Topic 842.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases , Topic 842 allows the election of several practical expedients as part of adopting this new standard. We elected the “package of practical expedients” which permits us not to reassess, under Topic 842, our previous conclusions regarding lease identification and classification. We did not elect the use of hindsight with respect to determining the lease term. Also, Topic 842 provides practical expedients after adopting the new standard. We elected the short-term lease exemption, and therefore, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases shorter than twelve months. We did not elect the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease non-lease The adoption of Topic 842 had a material effect on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and increased the required disclosures in our notes to the consolidated financial statements (see note 19 for further details). The most significant effect related to the recognition of ROU assets totaling $7.2 million that were mostly offset by the recognition of lease liabilities totaling $7.1 million in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of Topic 842 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Statements of Net Income or Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and currently believes there are no recent accounting pronouncements that may have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Therefore, we disclosed the ranges of the expected volatility and correlation coefficient for the companies that represented this peer group.
