Cher Ami fabric collection Casamance

Cher Ami fabric by Casamance: small-scale patterns in earth tones and blue

The Cher Ami fabric collection by Casamance is all about small motifs that fill an entire surface. Sometimes they are organic, sometimes angular, always set close together. The colours come from the same family: sand, ochre, rust brown and cream, complemented by deep navy blue. In the images you see the fabrics as upholstery for a round bar, on armchairs with an oak frame and as a curtain behind a velvet sofa. Brass, burr wood and amber-coloured glass complete the décor. The overall effect is warm, with enough contrast to stand out.

Organic and geometric: the patterns of the Cher Ami fabric

The title pattern Cher Ami fabric consists of irregular shapes that look as if they have been cut out: leaf-like fragments and curved pieces in sand beige on a dark blue ground. The shapes have a grainy texture, making the pattern look lively. Gandin fabric opts for straight lines. Small rectangles and blocks in ochre, brown and off-white are scattered like a mosaic. Rivalet fabric works with the same angular language, but here the block shapes interlock and the contrast is stronger. Navy blue, rust brown, cream and black alternate, with a visible twill structure in the weave. Ascension fabric keeps it calmer, with a woven structure in which beige and sand-coloured nuances merge.

Combining Casamance fabric with wood, brass and velvet

The images show how well this Casamance fabric goes with warm materials. Dark blue velvet picks up the blue from the pattern, oak and burr wood tie in with ochre and brown, brass and amber glass bring shine. You can let a busy pattern speak on a large surface and keep the rest calm. Or use Ascension as a calm counterpart next to one of the patterns. This way the Cher Ami pattern by Casamance gets the space it deserves.
