Gliss

The gliding and smooth effect of calendared upholstery, Gliss is reminiscent of its namesake musical term Glissando, which means to glide from one pitch to the next. A viscose warp provides an elegant sheen and is coupled with linen for a natural hand and rich color variation. The weft combines cotton and nylon for stability. Available in 10 cool colors — including a current periwinkle and mauve — this 54-inch textile has a luxurious weight and clean, polished look. It is finished with the manufacturer's own water- and stain-repellant finish, making it ideal for high-traffic residential applications. Gliss passes 35,000 double rubs (Wyzenbeek).
