Upholstery fabric model Sontuosità Barocca: L’eleganza di un altro tempo from Italy, in new condition, sized 2.00 x 2.80 metres with a weight of 250 g, crafted from tappezzeria.
Description from the seller
This furnishing fabric is a tribute to the majesty of Baroque style, reinterpreted with refined sobriety. The deep blue background provides an ideal stage for the antique-gold ornamental motifs that chase each other in a damask, symmetrical and solemn design. The interwoven scrolls, floral details and stylized shell shapes give life to a decoration that recalls the tapestries of noble homes of the eighteenth century.
The fabric is substantial, durable and with a rich hand, ideal for upholstering armchairs, chairs, headboards, screens, or for making drapes that add theatricality to interiors. It can transform a simple piece of furniture into a focal point, giving character to classic spaces or creating an intriguing contrast in more modern contexts.
It is said that Marie Antoinette, lover of luxury and scenographic beauty, had her private library upholstered with a similar damask fabric, personally chosen to harmonize with the leather binding of her favorite volumes. The nobility of the design and the warmth of the weave inspired long hours of reading and contemplation.
Perfect for those who wish to evoke regal, timeless atmospheres, this fabric is a bridge between past and present, between history and style.

Care and Cleaning:
To maintain the beauty and quality of your precious 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 machine with a gentle cycle at a maximum temperature of 30°C. Use a mild detergent free of aggressive bleaches to preserve vibrant colors.
Drying: Avoid the dryer to prevent compromising the fibers. Hang the fabric to dry in the open air, avoiding long exposure to direct sunlight, which could cause colors to fade.
Ironing: Iron the fabric at a low temperature, preferably with a cotton cloth over it, to avoid direct contact with the iron and keep the surface of the fabric immaculate.
Professional Cleaning: If used for upholstery or large surfaces, professional dry cleaning is recommended for safer and longer-lasting maintenance.
By following these simple guidelines, your fabric will retain its splendor and integrity over time, continuing to enhance your spaces with class and refinement.
