Malfa Yellow is a softly textured plain fabric in a rich ochre shade, sitting between mustard yellow and warm golden brown. Its even surface gives the colour a calm, substantial appearance.

About this fabric

The swatch is a solid, finely woven textile with no visible motif or repeat, allowing its warm ochre-yellow tone to take centre stage. Subtle tonal variation across the surface keeps the colour from appearing flat, while the matte finish avoids a glossy or highly decorative effect. The restrained weave and medium visual weight make this colourway suitable for either upholstery or drapery. In changing light, the yellow reads as earthy mustard rather than bright lemon.

How to use it

Use Malfa Yellow to bring grounded warmth to an otherwise neutral room, particularly alongside walnut timber, chalky walls or natural linen. Its earthy golden depth also works well as an accent chair or full-length curtain colour.

Pair this warm ochre shade with walnut, natural linen and softly contrasting chalk tones.

Malfa Yellow 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.
