Long a destination for connoisseurs of classic design, Scalamandré’s legacy began over ninety years ago when Franco Scalamandré began producing silk reproduction textiles for historic properties. For many decades, the Scalamandré weaving in New York City, manufactured the finest, most luxurious and exquisitely crafted mill, based fabrics, trimmings and wallpapers for the best-dressed interiors in America. Scalamandré continues to showcase its iconic designs today, as well as exciting new introductions that reflect the most current design and color trends in modern interiors.
