Monkey Palm Heavyweight Linen Fabric - Sunset
Inspired by Ardmore’s iconic storytelling textiles, Monkey Palm brings a playful procession of monkeys, palm fronds, and perched birds into a richly textured, heavyweight base cloth. The design feels both whimsical and grounded—naïve in spirit, yet layered with detail—set against a substantial weave that gives the print depth and presence.
Printed on 44% cotton, 28% linen, and 28% viscose, this thick, tactile cloth offers a beautiful balance of structure and softness. The cotton lends durability, the linen introduces natural character and subtle variation, and the viscose enhances drape and color saturation. The result is a versatile upholstery-weight fabric ideal for statement chairs, ottomans, headboards, and tailored soft furnishings.
Originally launched in 2010 as Ardmore Home’s very first fabric range, Qalakabusha (“New Beginnings”) was revisited in 2025 to celebrate Ardmore’s 40-year anniversary. This Iconic Collection reimagines beloved designs with fresh energy and bold color—whimsical yet deeply symbolic, playful yet rooted in storytelling. It invites a renewed sense of joy, curiosity, and imagination, hallmarks of Ardmore design.
