What Is Velvet
-
Originally, velvet was made from natural animal fibers such as silk, wool, mohair, and later natural vegetable fibers such as cotton and linen. The best velvet is of course silk, which makes the fabric soft and shiny and is especially precious. Velvet is also a type of velvet fabric.
Velvet fabric is a woven tufted fabric with soft, short, dense piles. It is suitable for curtains and upholstery. Velvet fabrics date back more than 4,000 years. Because of its lengthy manufacturing process, traditionally made of silk, and the need for more thread in the manufacturing process, it was once considered a luxury fabric that only wealthy families could afford, and was often associated with royalty. Thanks to the Industrial Revolution and advances in textile manufacturing and ready-made materials, velvet has become accessible to those who are not so wealthy. Today, it is also not always made of silk thread, but cotton and synthetic materials are used, which reduces its cost.
