Pulse Sand

Tempo Velvets VelvetCCF0025-09

Pulse Sand combines a warm sandy-beige ground with a fine, irregular cellular pattern that becomes more apparent across the softly textured surface. Its muted tone has a gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The close-set rounded motifs form a delicate pebble or net-like texture, with slightly deeper sand lines defining each small cell. Subtle tonal variation across the velvet catches the light softly, giving the beige colour a quiet, dimensional character. At 627 gsm, this is a substantial velvet with the visual weight expected of an upholstery fabric. It has a usable width of 143 cm, a 22 cm vertical repeat and a 6.5 cm horizontal repeat, with a standard length of 40 m.

How to use it

Use Pulse Sand on a deep-buttoned or clean-lined sofa where its warm beige tone can soften darker timber, putty paint and brushed metal. The small-scale pattern also works well on occasional chairs, banquettes and matching cushions without overpowering the room.

A substantial sandy velvet with a fine organic cell pattern, well suited to upholstered seating and refined neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Pulse Sand 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.
