What is kutnu?

Kutnu is a silk-and-cotton weave closely associated with Gaziantep in southeastern Türkiye, where it has been produced since around the 16th century. It was valued by the Ottoman court for its sheen and durability, and its characteristic moiré (watermark) finish makes it a distinctive choice for interiors and fashion.

Uses

Evening and formal wear details (lapels, collars, cuffs, bows), lampshades, cushions and pillow covers, headboards, ottomans and pouf upholstery, ties and bow ties, bags and clutches, jewelry boxes and frame coverings.

Care

Dry clean only. Water will remove the moiré effect.
