The Velvet

All Coins&More products of the “velvet” series are made of 100% viscose and cotton velvet.
“Wood and velvet if of first choice and mounted with some important precautions such as the use of natural products, therefore without solvents or chemicals, are the perfect combination for the preservation of any type of metal over time”.

Features:
Full-bodied and rich fabric, particularly pleasant to the touch. Viscose was born in the early 1900s from the need to find a soft and shiny fiber like silk, but more accessible. It is an artificial fiber extracted from vegetable cellulose that emulates the properties of silk, which is why it was born with the name of “vegetable silk”.
Velvet coin boxes, coin cases, pen holders, displays and much more are part of a large variety of items made by me with this material
some examples:

For information I list other types of velvet that exist

OTHER TYPES OF VELVET:
DI SETA is the yarn with which the finest velvets are produced, because it is able to give them a shiny surface and because it creates very soft draperies;
DI LINO velvet takes on a more opaque appearance. However, this fiber has the advantage of absorbing the dye very well, so the colors of the fabric appear more intense;
OF COTTON gives the velvet a more contained brilliance, but has the advantage of being very resistant and creating soft folds. The pile, however, is shorter than silk or viscose velvet;
SYNTHETIC, such as polyester and nylon, give velvet a very shiny appearance, but its folds are not soft and the fabric is quite heavy.
