About this fabric

This colourway in the Amalfi collection shows a strong buttercup yellow with a warm, saturated tone and a smooth, understated texture. It is a 100% polyester fabric with a 60,000 Martindale rating, making it well suited to contract use where durability matters. The supplied back coating offers cigarette and match resistance to BS5852, with other treatments available on request. Its plain design keeps the focus on the colour, which feels crisp, energetic and slightly golden rather than lemony.

How to use it

Use Buttercup to bring warmth to banquettes, accent chairs or piped cushions, especially alongside walnut woods, charcoal or crisp white. The bright yellow tone also works well in lively hospitality schemes that need a bold but simple colour statement.

A vivid buttercup shade that adds energy to tailored seating or statement accessories.

Pairs well with

Amalfi Buttercup 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.
