Every time I have to choose for the shop , for the show room it is the same question :
which fabric to choose ?
velvet or silk ?
Cotton or linen ?
plain or graphic ?
Classical or modern?
beige or red ?
Paisley or suzani
If it is really , it is colorful with ethnic design : Suzani is my favorite
but whar would you choose for this special armchair , I'm waiting for your advice ....
Paintings talk to me , paintings give me feelings
