Jaipur Espresso

Jaipur Espresso is a deep, warm brown chenille with a quietly mottled surface. The close-up reveals fine crosswise and lengthwise threads that give the otherwise plain cloth understated depth.

About this fabric

This 456gsm fabric has a dense, substantial handle suited to upholstery, while its 137cm usable width offers practical coverage for furniture projects. The espresso shade sits between rich coffee brown and charcoal, with the fine woven texture catching the light in softly varied flecks rather than a flat solid block of colour. With 69 threads per centimetre and no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat, it provides a consistent plain ground that is straightforward to cut and match. The standard length is 35 metres.

How to use it

Use Jaipur Espresso on a sofa, armchair or dining chair where its deep coffee tone can anchor lighter walls, natural timber and warm metal accents. Its low-contrast texture also works well alongside patterned cushions without introducing another strong motif.

A dense espresso-brown chenille with a subtle woven texture, particularly suited to upholstered seating and other hard-working interior pieces.

Pairs well with

Jaipur Espresso is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
