This damask is made of the finest quality pure silk and linen. Brilliant colors and a slightly raised pattern woven into the surface combine for a striking effect. Heavyweight, premium natural silk makes this brocade very sturdy, yet soft, pliable, and exquisitely breathable.
This damask is just the thing for sewing opulent costumes and beautiful corsets, and can also bring an element of luxury to interiors in both modern and historical styles.
We recommend lining this damask with a natural material such as silk or fine linen.
We recommend dry cleaning this fabric at a reliable dry cleaner. Take care when ironing, press on the back side at a low temperature (silk).
Rarely! We produce reproductions of historical fabrics as limited editions. We want to guarantee a certain authenticity to all owners of historical costumes and decorations. We recommend that you buy these fabrics while they are in stock, as this is the only way to secure them for your project aside from custom ordering.
Limited editions are fabrics of exceptional quality or patterns that have been designed and produced exclusively under the Sartor brand. As a rule, they do not repeat and are therefore only available while supplies last. Don't miss your chance to own a true original.
The minimum fabric order is a length of 20 cm.
Of course! Historical patterns are characterized by high-quality aesthetic workmanship with an emphasis on elegance and harmony, which make them timeless works of art. They are suitable for modern interiors, where they bring an element of originality (try a picture, a pillow). In fashion, they excel in simple, even minimalist, garments, handbags and other accessories.
