About this fabric
This version of Marla in Aqua reads as a softly muted teal with a greyed, coastal undertone rather than a bright turquoise. The pattern shows in ivory vertical striations and small stepped motifs, giving the surface a lively woven rhythm across the cloth. At approximately 140cm wide, the fabric is composed of 38% viscose, 23% cotton, 16% linen, 14% polyester, 7% acrylic and 2% polyamide. The repeat is approximately V 14cm and H 35cm, which supports the balanced, all-over effect visible in the swatch, while the Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code make it a practical decorative textile.
How to use it
Use Marla Aqua where you want pattern without heaviness: it would suit relaxed curtains, occasional chairs or upholstered headboards in rooms with pale timber, white walls or brushed brass. The cool aqua tone feels particularly good alongside chalky neutrals, weathered oak and soft stone blues.
A fresh aqua ground with ivory patterning works well for crisp upholstery or light-filled curtains.

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