Our New Ticking Stripe Fabric Collection: Ticking Archive One

Rule-breaking Colour

Due to popular demand, we have introduced some bright colours that are quite uncustomary for us. We have also expanded classics, ensuring that there is a complementing ticking to go with all Ian Mankin fabrics…and beyond.

Yellow and orange have long been an interior staple for creating a happy home. Since these refreshing, summery hues are not going anywhere fast, we have expanded this colour palette to include Apricot, Lemon, Ochre and Orange.

Breaking New Ground

Our feature ticking stripes in this collection use a rustic flax ground; these fabrics work tonally across much of the Ian Mankin range but are bold enough to stand alone as the hero.

Our Loom to Heirloom

Ian Mankin has been selling ticking stripe fabrics in the UK since 1983. Ian’s vision was to take well-made, natural, simple fabrics and bring them into the realm of fashionable and beautiful interiors. He coined the phrase ‘accessible elegance’, which is embraced today.

All Ian Mankin ticking fabrics have been crafted with a durable herringbone weave in 100% cotton. This gives them a beautiful handle and uniform pattern, making them highly practical on upholstery, curtains, blinds and soft furnishings. Tickings are also widely used as a fun, unexpected addition to interior furnishings such as curtain lining, lampshades and baskets, piping trims, cabinet curtains and tableware. To learn more about our 100% cotton ticking stripe fabrics, read our blog ‘What is a Ticking Stripe Fabric?‘.

Ian Mankin intends to continue developing this range to ensure that there is a ticking fabric to suit all schemes. You can trust that these fabrics will endure years of wear and tear in any busy household and the passing of trends and tastes.

The applications are endless, limited only by your imagination.
