Kalamkari Cobalt

Indira Fabrics FabricCCF0853-02

Kalamkari Cobalt pairs a soft ivory ground with slender vertical bands of pale, cool blue geometric markings. The repeated stripes create a light, elongated rhythm, while the blue remains washed and airy rather than strongly saturated.

About this fabric

This 252 gsm fabric has a 137 cm usable width and a compact 11.4 cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeat. In the swatch, fine blue linework forms small angular and diamond-like motifs within regularly spaced vertical bands, leaving generous ivory space between them. The pale cobalt tone reads cool and gently faded, with enough contrast to define the pattern without making the cloth feel visually heavy. Its 38 threads per cm specification supports the neat, closely detailed appearance visible across the design.

How to use it

Use the cool pale cobalt and ivory combination for relaxed curtains, Roman blinds or cushions in a bright room, where the vertical bands can reinforce the height of a window. It also gives small occasional upholstery pieces a fresh, patterned finish without overwhelming surrounding neutral furnishings.

The cool pale-blue pattern brings a fresh, airy rhythm to curtains, cushions and occasional upholstery.

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