Fenice lampas

This velvet was used to decorate the walls, seats and tabourets of the Teatro La Fenice. In the historical archive of the Tessitura there is a note of internal correspondence to the company, dated 15 January 1938, in which the Theater communicates by telephone to Tessitura Bevilacqua that 76 meters of the three-weft lampas fabric in light blue/ivory would be needed to cover the walls.
