Organza tulle

According to one of the legends about the origin of the organza, its name is consonant with the name of the eastern city of Urgench, which was famous for weaving masters. Today organza tulle will bring comfort and oriental lightness and mysteriousness to any interior.

What is it and how does it look?

At the very beginning, the organza was created from very thin and durable natural silk threads. The entire fabric creation process was very time consuming. Silk threads twisted and formed the canvas.

Thanks to scientific and technological progress, today the production of organza has been put on stream. Instead of natural yarns, artificial or synthetic (viscose and polyester), which do not differ in quality and durability from natural silk, are used.

The high cost of air tissue is due to complex technological process and specific processing in several stages.Curtains from organza (despite their airiness) are considered very durable, with proper care, they will last a very long time, retaining the original look.

From the merits of organza designers distinguish transparency and universal compatibility with drapes. The fabric does not fade, it is easy to clean. Organza does not collect dust, which makes it almost hypoallergenic.

Of the minuses of the fabric, you can select puffs. All mechanical damage cannot be repaired due to the ease of organza. Given this fact, such curtains are not recommended for rooms with pets.

The better the veils?

The veil is a tulle fabric that resembles a net. Create it from cotton, silk, wool or synthetic yarn.

The veil is predominantly white, like the organza, but with the advent of modern technology, the fabric is dyed with various types of dyes. However, the colors are muted.

The veil differs in some features - weightlessness, lightness, breathability, simple care (does not require ironing). Among the shortcomings - the fabric attracts dust and dirt (as opposed to organza). If you take into account the composition of the fabric, it must be borne in mind that the cotton veil shrinks after washing.

The main differences between the veil and organza are:

  1. The veil drapes easily into soft folds.
  2. The interior of the veil will take its rightful place in the kitchen, bedroom or dining room. Organza is more luxurious and elegant, it will be appropriate in the living room.
  3. Air permeability. At the veil it is higher.

If you can't make a choice, then take a look at the microvail. This material combines the strength of organza and the softness of a veil.

Kinds

There are two main types of organza - matte and glossy. The first does not reflect light and looks more strictly, which allows its use in interiors in a classic style. Glossy fabric transfers all the sun overflows and fills the room with light. Glossy curtains will be appropriate both in high-tech style and for oriental interiors.

Organza can be decorated:

  • laser;
  • embroidery;
  • patterns created by etching with dyes;
  • stamped;

Ornaments with birds or butterflies look particularly impressive, on a translucent background they look voluminous and real. Pictures with trees look no less beautiful - especially with sakura. Such a print will make the interior really oriental.

Tulle can be with a thematic design - for example, New Year's (snowflakes, Christmas trees, New Year's characters).

Colors

As mentioned earlier, modern technologies do not stand still, and with the advent of technological progress, a synthetic organza is created with various effects - Reaper, crash, "chameleon", with patterns, two-tone, solid, glossy or shiny.

Organza can combine several colors on one cornice at once, creating a rainbow effect due to its lightness and airiness.

The basis of a combination of several colors will always be white.Best of all it will be combined with the bright colors of the side curtains.

For a large, bright room, designers recommend combining a basic white canvas with fairly bright lambrequins.

As for hand washing, here too there are features. As in the first case - it is necessary to clean the curtains from dust. Then pour cool water and powder in a basin or bath and soak the curtains for about two hours. After that, squeeze them out and rinse. To make the fabric shine, add a little vinegar at the last rinse.
