Description
Ecru is no cold white but carries a cream cast. On velvet it reads creamy and soft, almost like unbleached wool.
Velvet ribbon, 16 mm wide, in 100 % polyamide, by the metre from 0.2 metres. Its face feels warm and soft while the back stays smooth. Because that pile swallows light, the same colour looks richer here than on a satin ribbon — a difference you only notice side by side. No washing, no ironing, no bleach, no drying. Roll leftovers rather than folding them.
What Samtband 16mm Ecru is suitable for
- Hair bows, because velvet slips from hair less readily.
- Gift wrapping, because that pile reads finer than satin.
- Edging on decoration, because 16 mm covers well.

Frequently asked questions
What sets velvet ribbon apart from satin?
Velvet ribbon has a short, standing pile; satin has a smooth face. That pile swallows light instead of reflecting it, so colour reads deeper and the ribbon looks finer — though it is also more sensitive to pressure.
How do I sew velvet ribbon on?
With a universal needle and straight stitch, close to both edges. That pile lets it travel under your presser foot — tack it first or use a walking foot, then your line stays straight.
Can it be washed?
Care symbols say no: no washing, no ironing, no bleach, no tumble drying. So use it where things stay dry — on decoration, wrapping or accessories.
How much do I need?
For a neck bow, reckon your neck measurement plus extra to tie; for an edge finish, that edge length plus a little reserve. Sold from 0.2 metres.
