Description from the seller

The design of this upholstery fabric is a timeless classic, a tribute to the refinement of nineteenth-century decor. The pattern features alternating vertical stripes: ruby red bands with a slightly satin finish and cream-colored bands adorned with small floral bouquets in delicate shades of pink and green. Thin borders and gold and brown floral motifs complete the composition with a touch of French romanticism.

Quality and Features The fabric is compact but soft to the touch, perfect for upholstery that requires durability and elegance at the same time. The precise weave enhances the brilliance of reds and the delicacy of pastel shades, making this fabric ideal for classic or country-chic environments.

Possible Uses
Perfect for upholstering seats, headboards, screens, and paneling in vintage or shabby chic environments. It is also highly appreciated for heavy curtains, decorative cushions, or to create a scenic backdrop in boutiques, ateliers, and country houses.

This type of fabric is inspired by the 'small conversation salons' of 19th-century French nobility. It is said that the Duchess of Berry, a great lover of decorative arts, had a room entirely upholstered with red carmine floral stripes to celebrate the birth of her daughter. Even today, the room is open to visitors at Château de Rosny and remains one of the most fascinating examples of classic botanical-inspired upholstery.
