About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric from the Curios Weaves collection is a substantial 555gsm textile with a usable width of 139 cm, making it well suited to hard-wearing interior use. The design has a small repeat of 22.5 cm vertical and 23 cm horizontal, which gives the ivory motifs a regular, balanced rhythm across the surface. Visually, the colourway reads as a warm turmeric gold rather than a pale yellow, with a softly mellow depth that keeps the pattern from feeling harsh. The fine thread structure, at 71 threads per cm, helps the ground look smooth and tightly woven, while the white motif lifts cleanly from the saturated base.

How to use it

Use it on a statement armchair, banquette, or cushions where the turmeric tone can add warmth without overpowering the room. It works especially well with pale stone, walnut, or ink-blue accents to sharpen the ivory pattern.

Pair with chalky neutrals or dark timber for a crisp, tailored look.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Dabu Tumeric without fighting it. 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.
