Canvas is a vibrant woollen upholstery textile created by Giulio Ridolfo. Particularly well-suited to large surfaces thanks to its pronounced structure, it features a soft weave and an expanded palette inspired by the landscapes of Skagen, Denmark.

The melange yarn used to craft Canvas combines three colours, with six hues in every colourway. Consequently, the textile offers exceptional colour richness and an intriguing expression. From a distance, it has the calm surface of a unicoloured textile. But, get closer, and shimmering colour nuances, delicate contrasts and an elegant structure emerge.

Giulio Ridolfo: ‘Canvas highlights how beautiful a yarn can be and projects a strong sense of craftsmanship.’

The palette consists of interpretations of colours found by Giulio Ridolfo at different times of the day when he was travelling in Skagen. Since the Danish Golden Age, this area has been a magnet for painters, as the landscape combines soft, pastel panoramas and dramatic, dark coastlines.

Reflecting this, Canvas’ colour scheme comprises a variety of dark, light, cool and warm tones. Every colourway combines different nuances to form a complex colour landscape, as in watercolour paintings.

Versatile Canvas is suitable for both contract and private use: it is very durable and, as a result, offers a long-life span. Additionally, it is certified according to the EU Ecolabel, and has a high content of renewable fibres.
