Beautiful fabric sofa


This historical technique of weaving with tie-dyed string has been around for a while, and by "for a while" I mean hundreds of years. It is not particular to any individual country, but each area has its own history of styles and signs.




And what styles and symbols! They are as much at house in present-day style as they were in the last. These days you can see ikat on cushions as well as padded seats, and couches. But ikat is not enclosed to material alone, as you will discover mats, walls documents and lampshades with ikat styles.
