Description
This collection is a high quality furniture fabric produced by GU - Gudbrandsdalens Uldvarefabrik. This collection has a composition of 75% wool and 25% viscose.
After some clever detective work, Christiane Müller found a fabric sample in the GU archives in 2012. The story goes a little further into history, because this fabric sample came from a jacket from 1959. The fabric was then translated into a sustainable fabric suitable for furniture with a structure and color palette that keep up with modern times.
The secret of this structure lies in a technique in which the weaving yarns are twisted together. As a result, the structure simultaneously forms a special pattern that gives furniture a unique look.
The high proportion of wool ensures that the fabric has a natural fire retardant and is very durable.
