Houndstooth, but softened and given three dimensions, so the check is present without any of the hard insistence that pattern usually carries. A thick yarn does the work, and the result has more in common with raffia or plaited straw than with a suiting cloth.
The fibre is a solution-dyed flame-retardant polyester with UV stability built in, and it comes remarkably close to a natural handle. 750 g, 55,000 Martindale, 7 out of 8 for light fastness, certified for contract upholstery and curtains across the UK, France, Germany, Italy and the United States, with IMO 8 for marine and EN 13501-1 as a wallcovering. Nine colours, 140 cm wide. Design Formafantasma. Made in Italy.
