You look at two different items that look the same, but one is described as fabric and one is described as materials. What's the difference? It can be confusing for anyone, simply because terms get mixed up and companies also describe their products in different ways. To better understand this, think of the word Velcro and how it gets used. Society associates the term Velcro with a product known as hook and loop fasteners. It stemmed from the company known as Velcro who produced the product originally. But its real term is hook and loop. No other company can call it Velcro, except Velcro Industries. This scenario also is somewhat similar with other products. Fabrics are known as what you end up with upon a spun and weave process with various materials. As an example, a fabric can be made from silk or be made from silk and cotton. Therefore, one company says it is a cotton curtain, while another says it is a cotton fabric curtain.
Fabrics are named based on materials or a design. This can typically lead to confusion. As an example, chenille fabric can be made from various materials, like olefin, cotton, and acrylic. In addition, satin fabric comes from silk, nylon, or both. On the design side of things, damask is composed of cotton and identified by small raised dots on one side of the fabric.
When studying the various fabrics available, a thicker one has the potential to last longer, yet may not maneuver as well. A fabric with more thickness in it will provide that level of strength you may desire. Thinner fabrics have the advantage of easier maneuverability, but usually wrinkle easier and some allow more light into the room through the fabric. Easy maneuverability and light may be something you prefer if you can live with less durability. Basically, the fibers or materials and the thread count used within the fabric will present its level of thickness. For instance, velvet and corduroy materials have a thicker aspect to them that makes a fabric more durable.
Curtains have a huge impact on both the appearance of a room and the tone, along with house cleaning. There is more to curtains than looks and identifying materials, as well as fabrics used, can have an overall impact on durability, looks, design, and dependability. Interpreting the characteristics of each one can make finding the right match easier and better.
