About this colour

At #E1D3AE, Silk Yellow reads as a muted biscuit-yellow with a clear warmth and a softly creamy cast. It reflects light well without becoming bright, so it can lift a room while still feeling settled and calm. In north-facing light it turns a little flatter and more understated, with the warmth taking the edge off the coolness in the room. In south-facing light it appears richer and more honeyed, showing its yellow note more clearly without losing its softness. It sits well beside natural oak, aged brass, stone, and upholstered pieces in linen, sage, or deep brown tones.

How to use it

Use Silk Yellow in a sitting room, hallway, or bedroom where you want warmth on the walls without a strong colour statement. It works neatly with painted woodwork in off-white, or beside timber furniture and curtains in warm neutrals, olive, or muted blue.

On a wall, Silk Yellow feels warm, restrained, and easy to live with.

Silk Yellow is a wall colour, so these are the cloths that sit against it: one of them on the curtains, the paint behind. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.
