China Seas Fabric: Bali Isle - Custom Orange on Tinted Belgian Linen / Cotton

Bali Isle is what happens when a traditional ikat decides to tell you its origin story. Those are birds, yes—mirror-image, ceremonial, the kind that appear on temple gates and in the dreams of textile collectors who've had too much turmeric tea. The pattern has the bilateral symmetry of something meant to be taken seriously, but the hand of the maker wobbles at the edges, as all honest hands do. It is formal without being fussy. It has opinions about your other patterns, but it will keep them to itself.

This orange is not trying to be coral, papaya, or any other fruit. It is the orange of a bird-of-paradise flower that has seen things. The orange of the third day of a trip you didn't want to take but now don't want to end. Against the tinted linen ground, it manages to be both bold and old—as if it were faded from something even MORE orange, which is frankly difficult to imagine. It will make your neutral room furious, and your neutral room will thank you.
