About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has a natural, softly slubbed surface that suits the relaxed movement of drapery. The design repeats at approximately V 68cm / H 134cm, giving the floral sprays room to open out across wider curtains and blinds. In this colourway, the petals and foliage read as pale aqua, misty blue and fresh spring green against a warm off-white ground, so the overall effect stays bright rather than saturated. The scale and spacing of the motif make it feel decorative without becoming heavy, and the cloth’s linen handle keeps the look crisp and breathable.
How to use it
Use Nerina Aqua for full-length curtains in a room with painted timbers, pale oak or whitewashed walls to echo its cool, watery tone. It also works well in bedrooms and garden-facing spaces where the soft blue-green pattern can lift the room without overpowering it.
Pair with crisp linen or painted woodwork to let the airy aqua palette stay fresh and light.

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