Name: Flynn Aqua

Flynn Aqua is a quietly coloured plain linen with a cool, misted blue-green cast. The weave reads fine and even, with a softly textured surface that keeps the colour light rather than flat.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Flynn Aqua comes with no visible repeat, making the cloth feel especially clean and understated across larger runs. The 139cm approx width is useful for both upholstery and curtains, while the Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code provide practical specification details for interior use. In the image, the shade sits between pale aqua and silvery grey, so it feels fresher than a neutral and gentler than a strong blue. The cloth has the dry, natural character expected of linen, with subtle slubs and crosswise texture that catch the light softly.

How to use it

Use Flynn Aqua where you want a cool, restorative note without committing to a strong colour statement. It works well with chalk whites, weathered oak and brushed brass, and gives slipcovers or curtains a crisp but relaxed finish.

A calm pale aqua linen that suits loose upholstery, relaxed curtains, and airy layered schemes.

Pairs well with

Flynn Aqua is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
