Name: Pure Twilight

Pure Twilight is a quiet mauve-grey colourway with a soft, finely textured surface. The close-up shows subtle vertical variation in the weave, giving the plain cloth gentle tonal depth rather than a visible motif.

About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric from Kirkby Design’s Chelsea collection, Pure Twilight has a fine, closely woven appearance suited to both upholstery and drapery. Its cool mauve-grey tone is muted and lightly pinked, while the surface shifts softly between paler and deeper threads. The restrained texture adds interest without introducing a printed pattern, making the colourway read as calm and considered. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Pure Twilight with chalky whites, soft stone and weathered timber for a cool, understated room, or use it to temper stronger plum and charcoal accents. Its mauve-grey depth works especially well on tailored seating and full-length curtains.

Use this cool mauve-taupe neutral to soften contemporary upholstery, curtains or layered schemes.

Pairs well with

Pure Twilight 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.
