Belmont Plain Aqua

Naturals IV WallpaperW7033-01

Belmont Plain Aqua has a very light, cool aqua tone that reads almost white at a glance, with a fine, understated linen texture visible across the surface. Its restrained plain appearance keeps the colour and subtle weave in focus.

About this fabric

The colour sits between a washed aqua and a cool pale blue, with a soft grey cast that prevents it from feeling bright or tropical. A delicate, even linen grain gives the surface quiet tonal variation rather than a pronounced motif. Made from 100% linen, this colourway has a supplied repeat of approximately V 0cm and H 2cm, consistent with its plain-looking appearance. The overall effect is airy, calm and lightly textured, with the aqua becoming more apparent where the light catches the surface.

How to use it

Use Belmont Plain Aqua to bring a cool, almost-white wash to a room, particularly alongside pale oak, chalky neutrals or softly weathered finishes. Its gentle blue-green cast also works well as a restrained counterpoint to warmer natural materials.

Use this softly cool aqua as a quiet, light-reflective backdrop with warm timber and natural textures.

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.
