Autumn Rust is a rich, deeply pigmented chalk paint colour that captures the warm, earthy essence of a New Zealand autumn. Carefully formulated with a complex blend of pigments, this designer paint reveals nuanced shifts in tone - ranging from burnt orange, crimson orange, and warm cinnamon, to rustic terracotta and deep brown-orange - depending on lighting and the surface it’s applied to.
Crafted to mimic the natural variation found in aged, fallen autumn leaves, Autumn Rust offers a stunning, multidimensional finish with a sense of depth and sophistication. This unique decorative paint colour brings an inviting warmth to interiors, evoking a grounded yet vibrant feel.
Perfect for interior walls using our Matte Estate wall paint, furniture painting, or feature projects, Autumn Rust pairs beautifully with natural elements like wood, rattan, stone, and textured fabrics. It’s also striking when styled with lush indoor plants.
For a bold, globally inspired aesthetic, Autumn Rust works beautifully with The Artisan Company blues, Crisp White, or warm metallic finishes.
Whether you're upcycling vintage furniture or refreshing an entire room, Autumn Rust is a versatile and timeless choice in our luxury chalk paint collection - designed to transform your space with ease and elegance.
