Chelsea Rust

Name: Chelsea Rust
Brand: Kirkby Design

Chelsea Rust is a warm, even rust-orange woven fabric with a softly textured surface. Its earthy terracotta tone has gentle depth, rather than a bright or highly saturated finish.

About this fabric

The image shows a plain cloth with a close, fine weave and restrained crosshatched texture, giving the surface quiet visual interest without a motif. Its rust-orange colouring reads warm and grounded, with slightly lighter threads catching across the face of the fabric. The supplied record lists no performance features for this exact colourway.

How to use it

Use Chelsea Rust to add a settled terracotta note to an upholstered chair, sofa or pair of curtains, particularly alongside cream, walnut, tan or deep olive tones.

Use this warm rust-orange cloth to bring grounded colour and subtle woven texture to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Chelsea Rust 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.
