Name: Altamira Ink
Brand: Ashley Wilde
SKU: ALTAMIRA

Altamira Ink has a rich, deep blue ground threaded with a pale botanical trail that feels quietly dramatic. The motif sits clearly against the dark background, giving the design a layered, moody depth.

About this fabric

This drape-only fabric is woven in 80% recycled polyester and 20% polyester, with a width of 143cm and a substantial 350g per linear metre (245g per sq m). The pattern repeat is 66cm vertically and 24cm horizontally, which supports the tall, climbing arrangement visible in the swatch. The colourway reads as a dark navy-ink base rather than a bright blue, while the leaf and stem shapes are softened in a warm stone-beige tone for contrast. Its conversational style and made-in-India construction suit statement curtains that want pattern without feeling overly formal.

How to use it

Use Altamira Ink for full-length curtains in a room with pale walls, smoked oak or walnut furniture, and brass accents to lift the depth of the blue. The inky ground works especially well when you want the floral pattern to feel atmospheric rather than obvious.

A dramatic botanical drape that pairs beautifully with pale timber, stone and crisp ivory trims.

Pairs well with

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