About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen and measuring approximately 139cm wide, Flynn Pale Aqua has no repeat, making the focus all about its clean, even cloth and calm colour. This colourway sits in a soft blue family with a greyed, watery tint rather than a bright coastal note, so it feels restrained and easy to live with. The surface shows the natural slub and dry matte character expected of linen, giving the fabric a relaxed, tactile finish. With care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM, it is presented here as a versatile textile for both furnishing and window use.

How to use it

Use this pale aqua to bring a fresh, coastal softness to an upholstered chair, blind or full-length curtain. It pairs especially well with white paintwork, weathered oak and other muted blue-green tones.

A soft washed aqua that suits clean-lined upholstery and airy curtains alike.

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.
