Fabrics for napoleonic uniforms: melton, velvet..
It is more and more difficult to find good melton to make uniforms.
We have 10 years experience of making costumes, and we know quite well now what are the suppliers who can offer the best cloth for reasonable prices
You can buy us many cloths, some can be sold all the year long, some are bought in auctions or in special occasions and cannot be replaced at these prices.
We can also supply some rare colours, but for these special orders, we ask you to order a minimum of 6 metres, it is what our suppliers ask from us.
