Many ask us - What is the difference between Damask & Brocade fabric? So we should explain this first...
Damask Fabric: Damask is a fabric that is made on looms with repeated patterns. The Patterns are controlled by Jacquards that are mounted to the top of the loom. The yarn used in the Damask fabric can be Silk, Wool, Linen, Cotton or Polyester (or any synthetic fabric). The Cotton, Silk or linen fabric is made on manual looms (low powered) while the synthetic fabrics are made on Power looms. Power looms cannot handle yarns made of natural fibers, as they tend to break easily.
Brocade Fabric: Brocade fabric is made in the same process as the damask fabric, except that the patterns are embellished in metallic yarns. Dry clean only.
Dyeing: Dyeing is the process of adding color to fabrics and is normally done in a special solution containing dyes and particular chemical material. After dyeing, dye molecules have an uncut chemical bond with fiber molecules. The temperature and time controlling are two key factors in dyeing. Please note: There might always be a slight variation in the shade if the fabrics are dyed during different times of the year.
Note : If you want to order 5 meters of fabric, you can add 1 meter to the cart and in the cart, you can increase the quantity to 5. We will ship you 5 meters of continuous fabric uncut (in a single piece). The maximum size of uncut fabric in a single piece is 20 meters because our bolt size is 20 meters.
