Alter Turmeric has a rich turmeric-orange tone with a finely textured woven surface. The closely repeated structure gives the colour a softly variegated, tactile appearance rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

This Kirkby Design textile is shown in a warm turmeric orange, shaded with deeper rusty undertones across the weave. Tiny, closely spaced woven details create an even, subtly pebbled surface that catches the light without forming a separate motif. Its dense appearance reads as substantial and well suited to upholstery, particularly where a plain fabric needs quiet texture. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Alter Turmeric to upholster a reading chair, bench or sofa where its warm orange depth can energise neutral stone, cream and dark wood schemes. Pair it with softer rusts or restrained olive accents to draw out the earthy character of the weave.

The dense, finely textured weave brings warm turmeric colour and subtle surface interest to upholstered seating.

Alter Turmeric 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.
