Beal Aqua

Pelham FabricF4845-03

Beal Aqua has a gently mottled, small-scale woven surface that reads as a cool aqua with a hint of green. The close weave gives it a tailored, understated look rather than a flat solid.

About this fabric

This colourway combines 45% viscose, 22% linen, 18% cotton, 14% polyester and 1% polyamide in a fabric that measures approximately 141cm wide. The weave shows a neat, basket-like texture with tiny interlaced marks that lift the surface and catch the light. In Beal Aqua, the overall effect is pale and fresh, with muted blue-green notes softened by the linen and cotton content. The repeat is approximately V 8cm / H 7cm, giving the design a compact, rhythmic character that suits both upholstery and drapery where a refined texture is wanted.

How to use it

Use Beal Aqua on a sofa, banquette or relaxed curtain where its cool, airy tone can brighten timber, stone and white-painted interiors. It pairs especially well with sandy neutrals, weathered oak and crisp ivory for a calm coastal feel.

A fresh aqua weave that softens beautifully alongside pale oak, chalky neutrals, and brushed metals.

Pairs well with

Beal Aqua is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
