The history of Dormeuil dates back to 1842, when Jules Dormeuil first began importing English textiles to France. Behind the fabric are the years of research and perfection required to produce these fine, exotic fabrics. When creating the canvas, Dormeuil follows three pillars: part of art, part of science and part of nature. From here, textile products are selected annually by breeding farms around the world to produce the highest quality natural fabrics. A rigorous process is then created to ensure that the end user receives a luxury product.
The history of Canclini Tessile began more than 80 years ago, in 1925, when the company was established as part of the silk industry in the Como region. The first major change took place in the 1960s. The exceptional experience gained in working with precious and luxurious fibers such as silk, together with the diligence characteristic of true entrepreneurship in Como, led the family to abandon the silk sector at the expense of cotton in the 1960s. This proved to be an inspired decision, as in the following years the company established itself as a leader in shirt fabrics.
