We think we hit a home run with this bold combination of colors on the recently installed custom drapes and upholstery.  Typically, when going bold one thinks of a bold colored piece of furniture, vibrant paint, interesting wallpaper, or vibrant over-sized wall art. But in this case the client chose a bold color combination on the drapes, the dining room chairs and roman shades that were all custom fabricated and installed by our craftsman at Landry Home Decorating.

In a nut shell, Double Rubs are a way to measure the abrasion resistance of a fabric. The test method is known as the “Wyzenbeek Test”.  This measurement can be found on most fabrics and helps to determine what type of fabric to use on a particular application.

The following is from our fabric distributor Green House Fabrics:
​These are common questions when shopping for fabric! If you don't fully understand double rubs, don't worry! We will answer these questions for you with hope that we can make your fabric buying experience easier and more informed.

When shopping for the perfect fabric, “abrasion” or “double rubs” is just one of many factors that upholsterers and designers must consider. Over the past several years, there has been some discrepancy regarding these numbers and what is actually necessary for upholstery applications. Manufacturers have begun performing extreme abrasion tests (Wyzenbeek and Martindale Tests) specifying results of 100,000+ double rubs. As a result, consumers assume that anything less is no longer considered durable enough. However, abrasion ratings are only one component of fabric durability.

In actuality, fabric that meets 15,000 double rubs is more than sufficient for residential upholstery. Furniture with light use such as accent chairs and ottomans can go as low as 9,000 double rubs without any wearing issues. 

According to industry standards, numbers higher than 35,000 double rubs are not meaningfully significant in guaranteeing additional value in use or life of a fabric. Most manufacturers stop abrasion tests once the fabric has surpassed 35,000 double rubs. There is no reason to continue testing beyond this point.

In regard to double rubs, consider the application and refer to the following guidelines:

Delicate Use: < 9,000
Light Use: 9,000 to 11,000
Medium Use: 12,000 - 15,000
Heavy Use: 15,000+
 
Our advice is to purchase fabrics that aesthetically appeal to you.
It’s more likely that the style of the fabric will wear on you before the actual fibers do.

​Are they curtains or drapes?   Well some people would say they are the same thing.  However, they are different.  Yes they both cover windows but curtains are are made of thin lighter fabric and are less expensive then drapes as drapes are made with heavier fabrics that are also good for blocking out light.  Here are pictures of custom made drapes we recently installed.

We recently re-upholstered this three piece French Provincial set.

​The term, French Provincial, is usually associated with simplified furniture of the Louis XV or Rococo style. However, plain furniture was made in the provinces in all times and styles, usually of walnut, oak, or fruit wood.

Provincial furniture is simpler in line than the prevailing high fashion and rarely veneered or decorated with marquetry or ornate carving.

"The buffet and cupboard forms are the most important provincial types... The armoire also developed in variety according to local usage... Straw-seated chairs ... The panetiere, or breadbox, is universal, as are wall shelves and knife boxes." - The New Encyclopedia of Furniture, by Joseph Aronson. Crown Publishers, 1967, p. 231.
