Handwoven Lambswool Herringbone Fabric, 250 GSM, 44" Wide
$19.47Excl. VAT
Description
A beautifully textured handwoven lambswool fabric in a soft, warm ivory shade. Its fine herringbone weave creates a delicate zigzag pattern and subtle tonal variation, giving the fabric understated depth and character.
Although approximately 250 GSM, this fabric does not have the dense, firm structure of conventional tweed. Its handwoven construction gives it a softer, more fluid and flowing drape.
As this fabric is woven by hand, slight irregularities may occur throughout the cloth. These are natural characteristics of handwoven textiles and make every length beautifully individual.
