Plush Chocolate is a rich, warm brown with a softly brushed surface that gives the swatch a deep, tactile appearance. Its quiet, near-solid finish lets the colour and nap create the visual interest.

About this fabric

Plush Chocolate is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted for this colourway. The image shows a dense, short, velvety-looking surface in a warm chocolate brown, with subtle tonal variation where the nap catches the light. The close texture absorbs and reflects light gently, shifting between earthy brown and deeper shadow across the swatch. Its plain appearance keeps the emphasis on colour, softness and depth rather than motif.

How to use it

Use this warm chocolate tone on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its plush surface can create a cosy, enveloping feel. Balance the depth with creamy neutrals, aged timber or softly muted brass.

Use this warm, shadowed chocolate brown to bring depth and a tactile, cocooning quality to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Plush Chocolate 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.
