18/06/2014

After PURITY  line fabrics’ launching in the last issue, we are going to introduce you to the other articles of our latest collection. A collection entirely dedicated to an extremely appreciated fiber, that’s to say linen,  a very suitable textile during summertime.

AUGUST
Known as an imperial capital, it was among the most important and populated cities of that ancient epoch, Augusta Treverorum, is the name given to a CTA line. It is a mixture of 50% linen and 50% polyester in two different variants: one more simple and plain texture and an irregular one, made up of irregular streaks which confers a more crumple effect. Suitable for a more decorative window treatment curtain, AUGUSTA is available in 13 chromatic variants in natural shades. A 325/330 cm height for the simple and plain variant and 290/295 cm for the crumpled one.

TAMARA
It’s one of the twelve “Invisible Cities” introduced by Italo Calvino and the name of this particular fabric: 100% Flame Retardant polyester is the blend of a dimming fabric with fireproof properties. It gives a particular Linen effect suitable for both contract and residential projects. Available in a very high version (295/300cm) in 22 color variants (grey and dove grey) more than other darker chromatic shades like burgundy and aqua green suitable for both window treatment curtains and bedcovers.

OTTAVIA
Ancient Rome Country village, Ottavia is a 100% polyester article and replaces” Leocorno” window treatment curtain in CTA catalogue because it will be no longer available from January 2015.

In 2014 catalogue, we propose it in great height, that’s to say, 310/315 and loses its original stiffness becoming softer to our touch and more opaque to our eyes.

TEODORA
Among the twelve Invisible Cities described by Marco Polo to the Gran Kan, Tartars Emperor, TEODORA is the richest collection for images and signs. The fabrics named after this city is very evocative because it recalls the elegant and aristocratic capitonné. A 100% linen manufactured with a squared geometrical motif spaced out by buttons in the same color variant. We propose it in a 130/135 height in white and unbleached linen shades. For more sophisticated furnishing needs, TEODORA perfectly matches with ZORA solid color fabric (140 H).

TECLA
A typically Greek name, Tecla is the city where Italo Calvino accompany us in his “Invisible Cities” tales. Tecla is a mixed blend of 80% Linen and 20 % polyester recurring in Purity Collection thanks to the great success got with the previous lines such as INGENUA, ANCORA, ANTARES, IBIZA and NIMES, too. Made at great height (295/300) TECLA is a delicate and soft linen in  natural  chromatic shades, very suitable for window treatment curtains.
