Tessitura Vay Torino – Elegante Cotone Pesante per Interior Design - Curtain fabric - 485 cm - 300 cm

I would set this one up as a large pure cotton upholstery fabric, giving real weight to its 3-meter height: 570 × 300 cm means 17.1 m² of fabric, and for substantial drapery it’s a selling point. In photos the color reads as terracotta / warm brick red, not just red.
Catawiki Description
ESPRIT – Vay Torino Weaving – Large pure cotton upholstery fabric – 570 × 300 cm
Splendid and substantial ESPRIT upholstery fabric, produced by Tessitura Vay Torino, a historic Italian textile manufacturer, offered in a magnificent terracotta / warm brick red tone, elegant, natural, and particularly easy to fit into both contemporary and more classical environments.
The feature that strikes immediately is the beautiful compact, tactile weave of the pure cotton. When viewed up close, the fabric reveals a dense, regular weave that gives it character and substance, while still maintaining a pleasant hand and a gorgeous drape.
This is not a light cotton: it is a heavy cotton specifically designed for upholstery, sturdy and structured, capable of creating full, substantial folds. A particularly interesting feature for making large draperies, where the fabric must have presence and fall gracefully without looking poor or insubstantial.
The color is one of its strong points: a refined terracotta shade, warm and enveloping, with hints that can recall brick red and Mediterranean terracotta. The slightly matte surface absorbs and returns light very naturally, creating delicate variations on the folds without shiny or artificial effects.
Close-up photographs show well the quality and regularity of the weave, while images with the fabric draped allow one to appreciate its body and the softness of its fall.
A truly generous dimension
The lot is offered in a single large cut of 485 × 300 cm.
The exceptional height of 300 cm makes it particularly interesting for full-height drapes, enabling work on large surfaces and substantial windows with great design freedom.
Thanks to its structure and the considerable quantity available, it can be used for impressive draperies, large decorative panels, cushions, light upholstery, headboards, fabric screens, wall decorations, and numerous interior design projects.
A versatile fabric but with a strong presence, ideal for those seeking the naturalness of 100% cotton paired with a dense weave and a warm color capable of immediately characterizing an environment."
