2 Velvet
Originally velvet was a fabric made with a short dense pile woven from silk warp. Now the term is applied to fabrics made partly of silk or rayon, and partly of other materials, and to fabrics made entirely of other yarns, besides being indiscriminately confused with velveteen, which is a weft pile texture. There is a constructional difference between warp and weft pile textures. In warp pile velvets the length of the pile is determined by the size of the pile wire, or in other ways, and the pile is cut in the loom. Many velvets are woven double, face-to-face, and cut apart while on the loom. In weft pile velvets the length of pile- is determined by the length of the pile weft floats, and the pile is cut in a supplementary operation after the cloth has left the loom. The distinguishing feature of velvet is a succession of rows of short cut tufts of fibres standing so close together as to present a uniform surface with a rich appearance and entrancing softness to the touch. The quality of velvets is determined by the closeness of the pile tufts and the manner in which they are bound to the ground texture. Various weaves are used according to the weight of fabrics, yarns used, and density of pile desired. The binding of the tufts usually follows one or two systems, either single tufts which are held by only one binding pick, as shown at S, or fast pile tufts which are interwoven with three weft picks as shown at W. -
3 Velvet, Figured
VELVET, FIGUREDThere are many ways of producing figured velvets, the outstanding examples being the handsome textures embodying designs made by weaving three and two heights of pile. The cheapest methods arc by embossing and shearing. In other figured velvets some parts of the cloth are left devoid of pile and in this style the design stands out in very striking relief. When the ground is semi-transparent the effects in dress fabrics are excellent. -

6 Double Velvet
Made by having the pile warp stretched between two layers of foundation cloths; a knife cuts the pile in the middle between the two layers. It is recorded that this idea was first worked in Zurich during the 18th century - Then in Lyons. Martin, a manufacturer at Tarare, applied the idea to plushes. During the early part of the 19th century Davis invented a double-velvet loom. In 1838 Guillot, Lyons, invented a double-velvet loom with vertical warp, the two layers of cloth being separated as the weaving progressed. -
