Sommaire

A pioneering manufacturer in the weaving and interior decorating fabric industries, Métaphores is an inspiring and contemporary company that has withstood the test of time. As befits a classic French brand, it combines centuries-old expertise with a bold, modern attitude. Enhancing the silks used to create furniture, encouraging manual horsehair weaving, and mastering the industry’s most beautiful textiles are at the heart of its mission.

The emotional impact of Métaphores’ fabrics

This brand, which specialises in furniture fabrics, transforms emotions into experiences. Its goal is to design collections that have a strong identity, unique feel, and subtle colours to provide professionals with the avant-garde materials of their dreams. Its innovations can be seen in its exacting selection of natural, beautiful, untreated, and generous fibres that are showcased through refined dyes and finishes.

A rich and pluralistic collection of iconic styles

The resulting impression stimulates the imagination through iconic and timeless styles that are used in both public and private decorating projects. Artistic Director Emilie Paralitici has brought a breath of fresh air to the brand by adding new sensory-rich experiences. The 18 qualities of the company’s hybrid ranges span different eras and styles, while still keeping ancient Greece as a common thread. After all, the classics never go out of style.
