Being this collection closely related to the textile industry through its ownership…the stars aligned. What probably was to be impossible, to reproduce fabric as per the original samples, turned out to be a pleasant job on these car since that one of the most iconic fabric mills in Europe is family related to us.
As so, since we had the original samples from the Bertone archive, and since the look an quality was so far-off from the fabrics sold nowadays, we proceeded to the acquire in Napoli of a pair of SS preserved original seats with the sole porpoise of cross examination the fabric.
We then applied almost a century of textile knowledge and experience to reproduce from the yarn, about 50 meters of the fabric respecting to the original colour and quality.
It was at the same time both a humbling and proud feeling archiving the goal of being faithful to the history of Bertone, Alfa Romeo and the automotive history of the period.
Take you time to scroll by the pictures of all this process.
