a range of beautiful fabrics individually selected by Sabine Verellen + team
being that tom + sabine verellen hail from belgium – you would be correct in assuming that belgian linen plays a big role in the verellen collection. wide to fine weaves, slubby, tight, stonewashed or tumbled : organic linens are used by verellen for both upholstered + slipcovered pieces…that being said, Sabine has been combing the mills worldwide for interesting fabrics – many of the new offerings are from italy. from the ‘classics’ to the ultra cool – Verellen’s in line fabric collection is not to be missed.
CLASSICS
100% organic belgian linen – grown + woven to last – and improve with age!

WASHED LINEN
we consider the washed linen a subset of the classics – some of our absolute favorites are in this group – all with a remarkably rich ‘hand’ – “visually luxe” – all 100% organic linen – or in the case of hemp; 100% hemp
bare linen | kalahari linen | sahara linen | stonewash linen | hemp
PARIS LINEN
marais | pompidou | montmartre
“linen by neighborhood” – oh so parisian – subtle, sophisticated, supple
WOOL | LINEN
some remarkable blends – wool + linen, wool + cotton, linen-wool-alpaca…nubbly (in a good way), durable (confetti + willow are especially ‘hearty’) + 2 new FAVORITES berber + kintore are part of this grouping….Artefact Boston is eagerly awaiting our new pieces in a few of these ‘must have’ fabrics
berber | kintore | matalpaca boucle | belsize | confetti | evelyn | ortica | willow
HEAVY LINEN
texture – rich tones….but really, this group is all about texture (and touch)!
aristio | carlotto | flat weave linen | rustic stonewash linen | vintage linen
SOFT
verellen calls this group ‘soft’ – it’s an understatement! with some of these you may never stop ‘patting’ the sofa!
adagio | aristio-caraveli | aristocosi | cavalese | pegmatite | mephisto alpaca
extra special blends by the textile masters in italy, belgium + france – mohair, soft wool, linen, alpaca, bamboo, cotton + polys are all used in this group of super soft fabrics.
FAUX FUR
perfect fauxs – fun pillows, poufs + more
“thumbs up” for the verellen maxim pouf in “wolf”, color brown (from the ‘faux collection’)
SUNBRELLA
yes – you read that correctly – SUNBRELLA – 5 select collections – any color in the collection!….and believe us, it is ‘not-your-mother’s-sunbrella’!
action | canvas | cast | hybrid | sailcloth
check out the colors in all 5 collections: SUNBRELLA

though the Verellen in-line fabric collections are predominantly neutrals + naturals – there is still plenty of ‘color to be had’. several of the libeco linens are available in ‘color’ – and to augment the Pura Vida + Madison collection offerings.
