Ikema Navy

Weave Fabric

Ikema Navy is a deep, cool navy woven with a softly mottled blue-grey surface. Its close texture catches the light in tiny flecks, adding depth without introducing a visible motif.

About this fabric

Ikema Navy is a close, even weave in a deep navy that shifts towards blue-grey where the light catches the yarns. The surface is finely pebbled rather than smooth, with tiny contrasting threads creating restrained visual depth across the swatch. It is catalogued as a fabric, and no performance features are noted in the supplied information. This dark, cool colour gives the plain woven surface a smart, quietly tailored character.

How to use it

Use Ikema Navy to bring a cool, inky anchor to an upholstered chair, sofa or headboard. Pair its blue-grey highlights with pale timber, chalky neutrals or brushed metal for a composed, contemporary scheme.

The dense, finely textured weave gives this cool navy colourway a tailored upholstery character.

Pairs well with

Ikema Navy 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.
