What color is Dulux Sulphur Springs 2?

Dulux Sulphur Springs 2 20YY 23/525 is a rich golden-ochre with a clear warm yellow base and a burnished orange-brown cast. Its depth gives it more weight than a light mustard, making it especially effective on a dining-room wall, a painted alcove, or cabinetry that needs a strong focal point. In bright daylight, the yellow warmth comes forward, while evening light can make the shade appear earthier and more amber-toned. Pair Sulphur Springs 2 with creamy off-whites, clay pinks, deep olive greens, or charcoal for contrast. Natural oak, walnut, aged brass, and woven textures complement its grounded, sunbaked character.
