Material: Polyester. Pattern: Printed. Medaillon diameter: 20cm. Fabric width: 145cm. This fabric is distinguished by a particular color effect, with an almost "watercolor" appearance.
Medium-weight fabric, slightly stiff. Does not wrinkle easily. Ideal for historical costume and various DIY projects. The visual effect is very similar to that of our 100% silk brocade. It is therefore the ideal choice for customers on a tighter budget who still want to purchase a quality fabric.
A few words about this fabric
The model here was probably woven in Persia or in the Far East, but fragments with a thematic, geographical origin, and similar dates are known in Europe, as in Oseberg for example.
In the Oseberg ship, which was excavated almost a hundred years ago, more than a hundred small fragments of silk were found. It is the oldest silk find from the Viking Age in Norway. At the time of the discovery, no one believed that these precious tissue fragments could have come from Persia, see from beyond. It was believed then, and wrongly, that most of it had been looted from churches and monasteries in England and Ireland. Today recent research attests to the existence of long and complex trade routes across all of Eurasia, from the far reaches of China to the Norwegian Fjord
