TRADITION AND FUTURE INTERWOVEN
The customised production of exclusive upholstery fabrics using the historic jacquard weaving technique and the manufacture of woven silk patterns makes the brand attractive to customers worldwide. The production history is characterised by creativity, craftsmanship and technical know-how. With great attention to detail, materials and patterns, some of which are hand-coloured, are processed into unmistakable fabrics. Unlike traditional fabric publishers with seasonal collections, Cammann produces timeless, reproducible works of art – customised to the customer’s wishes.
