Boscombe Aquarius

Boscombe Aquarius presents a symmetrical botanical arrangement of curling foliage, stylised blooms and paired leaf forms. In this colourway, blue-green tones and charcoal create a cool, shadowed ground, enlivened by ochre-orange and parchment cream details.

About this fabric

The swatch is filled with a dense, highly structured botanical design, including a central stylised flower, looping vines and ornamental leaf motifs. Its palette is muted rather than bright: teal and sage-green sit alongside deep charcoal, while ochre-orange and soft cream provide measured warmth. The close-set pattern and opaque-looking surface give Boscombe Aquarius a substantial decorative presence that reads naturally for upholstery. No composition, width, rub test or performance feature has been supplied for this exact fabric, so those technical details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use the charcoal and muted teal ground to anchor an upholstered chair or headboard, then pick up the ochre-orange accents with plain cushions or painted wood nearby. Cream surrounding textiles will bring out the lighter botanical details without competing with the large repeat.

A cool, formal botanical with ochre and cream accents that soften its charcoal depth.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Boscombe Aquarius 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.
