- Width: 140 cm. (55")
Length: Per Meter (Per 1.09 Yards)
Condition: Pristine
Unused. Perfect condition. Original condition unaltered. May have only extremely superficial marks consistent with age and history. This fabric is unwashed and has quite some sizing (starch). Selvages preserved intact. Minimal pale storage or age marks on the selvedges. The body of the piece is in excellent antique condition.
Please note: This fabric is special because it is lightweight, yet it has quite a lot of sizing (starch), which gives it a somewhat stiffer hand. Best typically for firm treatments, such as window roman shades, or to upholster chairs, ottomans, or structured pillows, such as bolsters, bench cushions, etc. potentially with a backing.
We recommend to only dry clean this fabric if you want it to keep its firm texture. It is possible, however, to wash this fabric, but the texture will transform into a fluid drape almost like a voile, then, mostly apt for very light fabrications, such as kitchen curtains and similar.
Ask us for a sample to see in person!
CARE: We recommend dry-clean only.

In the past these resistant fabrics for mattress covers were called "skin" (from the French "coutil"). This fabric is unused. Very rare! A treasure of the last factories in the Mediterranean. It is made of light weight cotton. Perfect textile for interior design and decoration projects.
ROSARIO SAYS: “A perfect combination of colors and widths of the stripes !!! It is a fresh fabric, colorful at the same time as cheerful. "
