Zulu 2
Zulu 2
Zulu 2 is a light, transparent curtain fabric made from Trevira CS, designed by Giulio Ridolfo. It comes in updated colors and consistently reveals surprising nuances as the light changes.
Though Zulu 2 looks delicate it is robust. The textile is woven with an open leno-binding, which creates a pronounced texture, using fine, shiny yarns. Each color-way combines two different tones – a construction that adds depth and movement to the curtain’s expression. Intriguingly, the color intensity increases when densely draped, and decreases in front of the window due to its open weave and transparency.
Lightfastness: 7
Lightfastness relates to the ability of a textile to retain its color under light. When testing for lightfastness, samples are exposed to artificial daylight for a specified period. The evaluation scale ranges from 1 (worst) to 8 (best). An increase of one point corresponds to a doubling of the lightfastness, i.e. the same fading takes twice as long.
