Fabrics : superfine qualities

Diamond chip

To offer Scabal's prestigious worsted fabric family, the exclusive Super 150's, in even greater variety and with a more glamorous look, Scabal has created an exciting new fabric called DIAMOND CHIP that adds genuine diamond fragments to Super 150's wool yarns and pure silk.

The key to success was not only to procure the right kind of diamond fragments from a renowned diamond cutter in Antwerp but to pioneer a reliable production process that would blend diamond fragments with very fine light weight wool.

This has been achieved by dispersing prior to the spinning process diamond fragments onto the wool, which had already been cleaned and combed but not yet spun into yarn.

The result is a lustrous yarn, fully blended with the diamond fragments, ready to be used in the production of the spectacular new DIAMOND CHIP fabric. Like any Scabal engineered fabric however, DIAMOND CHIP offers not only good looks but also the comfort and dependable performance of a modern worsted cloth.
