I have decided on the fabric to recover the RAVENSCROFT furniture. I did some research and found the style best suits the Rococo revivial period that ran approx. 1850-1870.The fabrics were traditionally anything from satin brocades to velvets, in solids, florals and even stripes. I originally planned on what we often think of as the traditional red or gold velvet, but when I found this fabric that everyone feels looks very vintage and the price was soooo right, I couldn’t pass it up!
