In the e-repeats.com repeating pattern database Kelim & Ikat is a topic/style category. This category contains designs inspired by hand knotted oriental carpets and resist dye ikat fabrics. We bring you both classical representations of these textile icons as well as contemporary interpretations.
Ikat stripe furniture fabric, Harvizo
Round cushion, Vriesco International
WHAT HAVE WE SEEN:
Bright, large, ethnic, colourful and contemporary. From medallion repeats to large allover motifs and fillers. All repeats are possible as long as they have this typical crafted ikat look, that look of of resist dye and woven motifs. The patterns however are rather simple and non complex. Multicolour, earthly tones, for a more traditional look. Brilliant two-and three- coloured, combined with white, for a contemporary look.
