PRECIOUS FIBERS 3
This wallcovering reinterprets a classic animalier motif, featuring crocodile
scales, in a modern way and evoking exotic places. The pattern, typical
of fashion and luxurious leather goods, becomes the starting point for the
rich linen background. The name is a tribute to Amahl and the Night Visitors
(1951) by the Italian composer Gian Carlo Menotti, which shares with this
wallcovering the union of tradition and innovation: in fact, this opera – the
first ever conceived for television – presents a plot that changes the usual
point of view on the journey of the Magi in the Holy Land.

PRECIOUS FIBERS 3
A refined design inspired by pleated fabrics enriches the linen base of
this wallcovering. The motif recalls the texture of Giorgio Armani fashion
creations, adding dynamism and depth to the tone-on- tone palettes
presented in different neutral hues. The name is a tribute to Carmen
(1875) by George Bizet and the sumptuous decorated dress of Spanish
toreadores walking the stage of this famous opera.

PRECIOUS FIBERS 3
For the making of this wallcovering – dedicated to Loreley (1890), opera
by Alfredo Catalani – the choice was to use the ancient technique of fil
posé, made even richer by the use of silk threads, which is rare for this
production process. The colour palette alternates vivid and pastel tones,
neutral gradients and fluid shades inspired by the plot of the opera itself,
whose protagonist is a girl turned into a fairy after the wedding to the
Rhine river: spells and watery reflections define an oniric atmosphere,
celebrated by this wallcovering where the design comes from the
reinterpretation of an ikat effect in macro-scale.
