This cloth is really like a breath of nothing – a featherweight that registers just 10 grams per running metre. This is an ultrafine polyester weave, coated with a choice of aluminium, copper or bronze, and printed on one side with a soft flowery design in digital printing. In an almost magical way, the textile rings the changes on transparency, luxurious shimmering qualities and an ephemeral glory of flowers.

“Secret Garden” is one of those “magical” products with which designer Martin Leuthold and textile manufacturer Jakob Schlaepfer have repeatedly reenhanced their already outstanding international reputation. The technical perfection of the material, which shows most spectacularly in movement, has here been made entirely subservient to the poetic effect achieved.
