Misc Fabric

Otter Denim brings a cool, softened denim-blue ground together with an ivory ikat pattern of scrolling diamonds, mirrored curves and broken geometric marks. The close-up shows a gently tactile surface that gives the pale motifs a slightly softened edge.

About this fabric

This cotton print is defined by a rhythmic ikat arrangement, with vertically aligned ornamental forms interrupted by smaller diamonds, hooks and painterly irregularities. The colourway is quieter than a vivid blue: its washed denim tone has a greyed depth, while the ivory pattern keeps the overall impression light and balanced. The supplied listing identifies it as a cotton print fabric, with no separate width, rub test or performance feature noted. Its apparently versatile mid-weight appearance makes it suitable to consider for either upholstery or drapery, subject to project requirements.

How to use it

Use Otter Denim on a relaxed armchair, occasional chair or full-length curtains where its cool blue-grey ground can sit against ivory walls, pale oak and natural linen. The graphic ikat works especially well as a principal pattern, with quieter solids used around it.

Pair the cool denim ground with ivory, chalk or warm timber tones to let the ikat drawing remain the focal point.

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.
