Description from the seller
This fine cotton upholstery fabric is distinguished by its elegant Toile de Jouy pattern in white and blue, inspired by 18th-century bucolic scenes. The design delicately depicts moments of rural life: farmers dancing in a circle, women gathering flowers, men sailing boats, roosters proudly perched on roosts, all set against a countryside dotted with trees, birds, and domestic animals.
Printed on durable yet soft-to-the-touch cotton, this fabric combines aesthetics and functionality. The high-definition printing captures every detail of the engraved scenes, as if they were taken from an ancient intaglio print. It is perfect for adding character to classic, rustic, or romantic interiors.
Ideal for covering armchairs, upholstered chairs, decorative cushions, wall panels, or bed headboards. It is also suitable for theatrical curtains or elegant tablecloths in environments inspired by French charm.
The Toile de Jouy motif takes its name from the manufactory founded in Jouy-en-Josas, France, in 1760. At the time, this style was exclusive to the aristocracy, who loved to decorate their country homes with these illustrated fabrics. It is said that Marie Antoinette chose a similar one for her secret retreat at Petit Trianon, eager to surround herself with an idealized nature and away from the rigidity of the court.
This fabric is more than just a covering: it is a window into a poetic past, capable of bringing the beauty of simple life into your home.
Measurements: 3.00 x 2.80 meters

Washing and Care:
To maintain the beauty and quality of your fine fabric over time, it is important to follow some simple care instructions:
Washing: It is recommended to wash the fabric by hand or in a washing machine on a gentle cycle at a maximum temperature of 30°C. Use a mild detergent free of harsh bleaches to preserve the vibrant colors.
Drying: Avoid the tumble dryer to prevent compromising the fabric fibers. Hang the fabric outdoors, avoiding prolonged direct exposure to sunlight, which could fade the colors.
Ironing: Iron the fabric at a low temperature, preferably with a cotton cloth on top, to avoid direct contact with the iron and to keep the surface of the fabric impeccable.
Professional cleaning: If used on furniture coverings or large surfaces, professional dry cleaning is recommended for safer and more durable maintenance.
By following these simple guidelines, your fabric will maintain its shine and integrity over time, continuing to enhance your spaces with class and refinement.
