Description from the seller

Rare Baroque Damask Jacquard Upholstery Fabric, Made in Italy
Floral Gold on Ruby Red Background

Bring the charm of grand palaces into your home with this rare Italian-made upholstery damask jacquard. It is a substantial fabric, with a ruby red background illuminated by a raised baroque gold pattern. The panel measures 270 x 280 cm, coming from a private collection and in excellent condition: a piece aimed at upholsterers, decorators, and enthusiasts seeking an impactful fabric for a prestigious project.

The damask takes its name from Damascus, the ancient Syrian city at the crossroads of precious fabrics trade. In Italy it found one of its preferred homelands: Lucca, Venice, Genoa, and Florence, and later the silk tradition of San Leucio in Caserta. Its secret lies in the play between shiny and matte parts, which makes the pattern emerge with light. Here flowers, leaves, and baroque scrolls intertwine in a lively motif. The ruby red and gold recall noble furnishings and pair naturally with both classical interiors and eclectic or contemporary environments.

Jacquard weaving interlaces the design directly into the fabric rather than printing it on the surface, which gives the damask body, depth, and great durability over time. The hand is silky and full, with a raised texture perceptible to the touch and a surface that catches the light differently depending on the angle. These are the features that serve true upholstery: durability, stability, and a strong visual impact.

An ideal fabric for those who love classical luxury and want to create baroque, neoclassical, Venetian, glamorous, or eclectic spaces. It can also bring a dramatic note to a modern interior in contrast.

- Sofa covers, important bedspreads and runners for grand occasion tables.
- Set design for historic houses, hotels, restaurants, and sets with a theatrical taste.
