About this fabric

The colour reads as a softened blue aqua, with a lightness that keeps the swatch feeling fresh rather than saturated. Fine vertical threads create a delicate, lightly slubbed surface, while subtle tonal variation gives the pale ground gentle depth. The cloth appears fine and light in the image, making it best suited to drapery. No composition, width or rub-test information has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Wave Soft Aqua at a window where its cool, pale tone can enhance daylight, pairing it with white, chalky neutrals or soft grey-blue furnishings.

Use this cool, pale aqua shade for airy curtains that brighten a room without adding strong colour.

Pairs well with

Wave Soft 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.
