Pulse Espresso

Name: Pulse Espresso
Brand: Clarke & Clarke
SKU: CCF0025-06

Pulse Espresso is a deep, warm brown velvet with an especially close, tactile surface. Its small tonal pattern reads like densely packed organic loops, giving the dark colour subtle movement rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The 627gsm construction gives this Clarke & Clarke velvet a substantial, upholstery-ready presence. Across the espresso-brown ground, tiny irregular looped shapes create a fine pebble-like texture, while the pile catches the light in softly varied brown tones. The pattern repeat measures 22cm vertically by 6.5cm horizontally, keeping the texture visually delicate at full scale. With a 143cm usable width and a standard 40m length, Pulse Espresso is practical for coordinated upholstery projects.

How to use it

Use this warm espresso shade to bring depth to a library chair, sofa or headboard, pairing it with aged timber, tobacco leather and muted bronze for a rich, cocooning scheme.

Pairs well with

Pulse 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.
