Perdita Aqua shows Oriana’s scrolling floral pattern in a pale, softly weathered aqua ground. The design reads airy and gently aged, with fine outline detail and quiet contrast rather than bold colour.

About this fabric

This Colefax and Fowler fabric has an approximate width of 133cm and a repeat of V 50cm / H 66cm, giving the pattern a generous, decorative rhythm across the cloth. The composition of 49% viscose, 26% linen, 17% cotton and 8% polyester suggests a supple decorative fabric with a natural linen-cotton handle and a smoother viscose finish. In this colourway, the ground is a muted aqua with a cool, misted quality, while the motifs sit in soft beige, stone and grey-blue outlines that keep the overall look light. The surface appears slightly striated and relaxed rather than glossy, which suits the heritage floral and scrolling lattice effect shown in the image. Fire code √BM and care code Q 8 + T 3 are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Perdita Aqua on curtains, cushions or a statement armchair where its cool pastel ground can brighten darker joinery or walnut furniture. It works especially well with chalky neutrals, pale oak and faded blues for a calm, layered scheme.

Pair with pale woods and oatmeal linens to keep the cool aqua ground feeling fresh.

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