The Italian damask upholstery fabric, model “Fioriture Veneziane” – Tappezzeria Classica dal Fascino Intramontabile, measures 2.80 × 2.00 m and features an ivory ground with embroidered floral motifs.
Description from the seller
A classic and refined upholstery fabric, characterized by an elegant ivory base dotted with a dance of embroidered floral motifs in shades of ruby red, sage green, and pale gold. The design, densely arranged in a sophisticated vertical balance, recalls the textile decorations of noble Venetian homes in the eighteenth century, with its stylized blooms and generous volumes.
Fabric quality:
Made in a structured upholstery fabric, it features a raised, textured background that gives depth and movement to the motif. The hand is compact but not rigid, perfect for maintaining shape even in the most elaborate coverings, while the sturdy weave ensures long-lasting durability. The Jacquard weaving highlights every detail of the floral pattern, with light effects that vary according to the fabric’s orientation.
Possible uses:
Ideal for covering chairs, armchairs, headboards, screens, or for making curtains, cushions, and wall decorations in environments that aim to evoke timeless elegance. It also lends itself particularly well to restoration work on antique furniture or to create a refined contrast in more contemporary settings.
Interesting anecdote:
The design of this fabric draws inspiration from an ancient fragment of brocatelle discovered in a small upholstery workshop in Venice, framed above the workbench of an elderly craftsman. The original motif, dating from the eighteenth century, was used in palaces along the Grand Canal to cover walls and padded headboards: a luxury of the era’s aristocracy, now revived in this timelessly elegant reedition.
