Lucius Aqua is a softly faded damask in watery blue-green tones, set against a pale ground that keeps the design airy. The large-scale floral repeat reads with a gentle, reflective quality rather than high contrast.

About this fabric

Woven in a blend of 42% linen, 38% viscose and 20% silk, Lucius Aqua has the refined handle you would expect from a decorative fabric with a little softness and sheen. The surface shows a subtle slub and a lightly lustrous finish, which helps the aqua motif sit quietly on the pale base. Its repeat is approximately V 97cm and H 64cm, giving the pattern a generous, traditional damask rhythm across the 128cm width. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Lucius Aqua where you want pattern without heaviness: it would suit tailored curtains, loose covers or a smart armchair in a light-filled room. The cool aqua tone works especially well with chalk white, weathered oak and brushed silver finishes.

A pale aqua damask that brings a fresh, elegant lift to both curtains and statement upholstery.

Pairs well with

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