About this fabric

Woven in 82% viscose and 18% linen, this fabric has a smooth but slightly slubby handle that suits both upholstery and drapery projects. The check repeats at approximately 12cm vertically and horizontally, creating a medium-scale pattern that reads clearly across the cloth. In this colourway, the aqua sits in a cool, misted tone, softened by chalky cream squares so the effect is fresh and light instead of bright. The 140cm approximate width makes it practical for a range of interior uses, while the Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code are useful technical details for specification.

How to use it

Use this pale aqua check on a relaxed armchair, Roman blinds, or café curtains where the soft colour can catch daylight. It pairs especially well with painted whites, driftwood tones, and muted blue-green accents.

Use this airy aqua check to bring a fresh, easygoing lift to upholstered chairs or light window treatments.

Pairs well with

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