Frequently asked questions

What kaftan ateliers ask us.

Which velvet is right for a kaftan or takchita?

We recommend 3000 Cotton Velvet: 100% cotton, 280 g/m² and 150 cm wide, with a dense, matte pile and a long drape. For the Moroccan salon, the 350 g/m² 3500.

Does cotton velvet hold fetla and medjboud embroidery?

Yes. Its short, dense pile holds gold-thread embroidery, raised or flat, as well as sfifa and passementerie. We send samples so your atelier can test it before cutting.

Cotton or polyester velvet?

Cotton velvet is made from a natural fibre, with a matte, velvety surface and deep colour; it does not have the plastic sheen of polyester under party lights or in photos.

What is the minimum order?

For stock colours, one box per colour, about 45 metres. For custom colour, from 300 metres per colour.

Can you match our collection colour?

Yes. We start from your sample, a Pantone or NCS reference or one of our 25 colours, and develop the shade through lab-dips until you approve it. Custom colour is supplied from 300 metres and locked for reorders.

Do you ship to Morocco, Algeria and France?

Yes. We ship worldwide from our stock in Spain and quote FOB Spain or CIF to your port.

How fast can we get samples?

Samples are dispatched within 48 hours from Arnedo, Spain, together with the physical colour card.
