Bengale
Iridescent effects come by way of metallic fibers that sparkle and shimmer in the light. Colors are deep, distinctive, and daring.

Certain textiles refer to the carefree, dazzling days of disco, while others are redolent of the muted, mesmerizing ambience of the films of Wong Kar Wai.
Fever & Divine
At times, there is a spirit of intrigue and elegance, at others one of exuberance and eccentricity.

Yet, having fun does not preclude a sense of responsibility and Moonlight further reaffirms Métaphores’ determined commitment to eco-production and environmental concerns. Once again, special attention has been given to the sourcing of fibers and the composition of each fabric.

Métaphores’ iconic cotton velvet hardly needs an introduction. Its remarkably high pile bestows it with unparalleled comfort and softness, while its protracted dyeing technique gives its fibers an incredible chromatic density. It brings a sumptuous snugness to seating and wonderfully nuanced undulations to curtains. The Saint-Germain is now available in 55 colorways as its range has been expanded with the addition of 19 new colors, each of which have been devised to allow them to be effortlessly combined with other fabrics from the collection.
While innovation and audacity may be keywords to the new collection, our traditional savoir-faire remains at the heart of Métaphores’ approach.
Kintsugi
Tablecloth in Kinstugi | Table, Laurence du Tilly
The Asian influence behind this highly decorative Verel de Belval jacquard is unequivocal. Its name comes from the age-old Japanese art of repairing the cracks in broken pottery with gold or silver lacquer. Highly detailed and wonderfully precise, its chimerical botanical motifs feature associations of flowers, leaves and branches, which have been simplified to give them a slightly more contemporary look.

The influence of fashion can also be felt, whether it be in the more understated textiles that evoke the male wardrobe, or more audacious ones that would more commonly be associated with the realm of couture.
Féline
The sensuality of nocturnal life is echoed in the sumptuously tactile and voluptuous nature of the fabrics. Many display a remarkable softness and fluidity, a richness and luxuriance to their composition.

The party mood continues with this gloriously glistening plain fabric available in 20 different metallic tones, which evokes the era of disco with its dynamic energy. Light glints on its pearly, almost liquid surface, giving it an intrinsically feminine and delicate quality.

Lounge
The mastery of unique weaving techniques gives rise to singular fabrics, some of which are based on historical documents from the house textile archives that have been given a contemporary twist to adapt them to the tastes and demands of today.

Bedecked with peony, tulip and rose-like flowers depicted in a manner both figurative and realistic, this new addition to the Verel de Belval line is based on a Louis XV-style brocatelle designed by Mathevon et Bouvard in the 19th century.
