With impeccable attention to intricate details, Dapper is a wild damask stripe inspired by the handmade Venetian velvets created with hand-applied wooden printing blocks by ancient textile techniques in small workshops made famous by houses like Fortuny and Luigi Bevilacqua. Our inspiration comes from ancient Italian works of art and the rich cultural heritage of Renaissance Venice, the historical Venetian velvet arts, sumptuous patterned velvets, brocades, and damasks that adorn the walls of the city's grandest palaces and richest churches, covered tables, and upholstered furniture. Dapper starts with true historical reference, pays homage and tribute to its origins, and to collectors who know the original work and then embarks on the artistic license, contemporary interpretation, and re-Imagineering. Dapper is bold, edgy, sumptuous, and both modern and timeless.
