Colette – Petites Fleurs Bleues – Fabric by the meter
Collection TraditionOn Velvet or Vosges canvas woven in France
Inspiration
The mental landscape summoned here is that of the rich universe of the writer Sidonie Gabrielle Colette. Our eponymous creation translates in image and color this complex and captivating figure of literature, whose thousand lives have crossed the world of music hall and dance, the written press and even music.
A paragon of freedom and creativity but also deeply linked to her Burgundian roots, a poltergeist full of malice and a robust earthling anchored in nature and its multiple beauties, the figure of Colette permeates this model which will immerse you in the reminiscences of a bygone era. but whose clever mix of fantasy and freedom, modernity and iconoclastic character continue to be a source of inspiration.
In the Tradition collection, the Colette fabric occupies a special place because of its ambivalent aesthetic whatever its version: stripes with subtle colored contrasts, Chocolate, Pink Orange, etc. or an opposition of geometric and plant motifs, mixing the false rigor of the straight line with the undulation of imaginary, sinuous and dancing flowers echoing the forms dear to the Art Deco style. A set of patterns to coordinate as you wish, also to discover as wallpaper.

High resistance to abrasion, for durable, high-quality furnishing textiles
Our textile products are tested using the Martindale, which assesses a fabric's abrasion resistance over time. This is particularly useful for choosing fabrics that will be frequently used: chair seats, sofa covers, certain cushions, etc. This test is expressed in the number of rotations (the Martindale machine rotates while rubbing the fabric), and as an example, the French furniture standard is 10,000 Martindale rotations for sofa upholstery.
