Occhio di Pernice
29 April 2013
Occhio di Pernice (Bird’s Eye). Fabric with a small pattern, similar to that of an actual partridge’s eye. This material has become a classic, used for men’s jackets and coats since the 1940s. Its dark surface is covered with small lighter dots that create an irregular chromatic effect. The pattern is achieved using a “T cloth” weave, alternating two light threads with two dark ones. The final effect is that of very small, almost round, dots, with at their centre a light dot on dark background.
