Eleonora Di Toledo Fabric
This is a reproduction of the fabric of the dress which Eleonora Di Toledo wore in the famous portrait. It's a marvellous example of Italian, Tudor / late Renaissance fabric design.
The actual fabric was 'voided' velvet, a fabric which has a satin background with velvet designs on it. Since that particular type of fabric is basically unobtainable nowadays - there's, to my knowledge, only one company in the world that still weaves this type of fabric, at a whooping cost of $500+ per yard - this "just" printed fabric may be a good alternative if you're "just" after the look and don't need the authentic material.
The fabric is printed at the approximate size of the original fabric and the height repeat is 36 inches.
This particular version is a 'mock velvet and golden design'; it imitates the velvet (with tiny 'hairs' in the print) as well as the golden parts of the fabric with rows of golden loops.

The product was exactly as described absolutely beautiful quality and perfect for what i needed. Made perfectly into a tie and bow ties. The quality was great and the colours are lovely. Darker than the ribbon i ordered but was perfect for what we need Ed 7

Love this fabric, the print is lovely and clear and holds its colours after washing, used it to make a rather large cushion as a gift and it was very well received, very easy to sew with too, love that it’s so unique and vibrant, will definitely recommend and will be buying more from this seller. Very clear with no smudges and no blurring

The design is so pretty and the colours are subtle yet rich. The material the design is printed on is strong and great for cutting for upholstery. It is also soft to the touch which is great as its such a tactile pattern. The colours are so rich and just as the image shows!
