Coarse grain raised in the weave, and a mélange yarn that shifts tone within a single colour: between them they keep the surface moving, which is what stops a heavy outdoor cloth from looking like a tarpaulin. At 845 g it is heavy, and it needs to be.
50,000 Martindale, 7 out of 8 for colour fastness to light, 4 to 5 out of 5 to chlorinated and to sea water. Ten colours, 140 cm wide, made in Italy. Terrace seating, poolside, cushions that stay out.
