Lanius Aqua

Gustav FabricJ0205-02

Lanius Aqua reads as a soft aqua-green with a misty, weathered finish and an abstract, blocky pattern that feels gently broken up across the surface. The effect is calm rather than bright, with pale parchment notes giving the colourway extra depth.

About this fabric

This Jane Churchill fabric from the Gustav collection has a decorative abstract repeat with a large overall rhythm, measuring approximately V 91cm by H 35cm. The cloth is 140cm wide and made from 80% viscose, 15% polyester, 4% linen and 1% polyamide, which helps explain the smooth, lightly lustrous face and the dry, softly textured ground visible in the swatch. Lanius Aqua blends muted sea-glass green with warm stone-beige highlights, so the design looks weathered and tonal rather than sharply contrasted. Its softly irregular patterning gives the fabric movement without feeling busy, making it suitable for either upholstery or drapery depending on the project.

How to use it

Use Lanius Aqua on a statement armchair, a relaxed sofa or full-length curtains where the soft aqua tone can sit against pale woods and off-white walls. The weathered green colouring works especially well in rooms that need pattern with a quiet, collected feel.

Pair with pale oak, chalky neutrals and brushed brass for a calm, tailored look.

Pairs well with

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