Craft & quality since 1851
The art and craft of creating colours
For 170 years, Gabriel has developed the art and craft of creating colours, starting with plant and mineral dyes, moving on to the first revolutionary synthetic dyes, and later pioneering the industry with dyes free from any heavy metals. Today, colour design has become an integral part of who they are. Their inhouse designers master the art of creating beautiful colours and mixing and matching shades and tones to compose colour palettes that define furniture and indoor spaces, reflecting the times in which we live.
Dedicated focus on innovation
The story of Gabriel is also the story of adaptability and innovation. From the industrial to the digital revolution, they have embraced ground-breaking new technologies to continuously improve their craft and products. Spanning post-consumer recycled fabrics, optimised production methods, and innovative knitting and embellishment techniques, Gabriel ceaselessly explore and integrate new technologies and materials to reinvent the world of furniture fabrics.
Caring for nature for 170 years
Caring for nature is intrinsic for Gabriel. From its beginnings in 1851, measures were taken to protect the water quality of the stream that ran by the textile mill and provided the factory with waterpower. Almost two centuries later, they are renowned for pioneering the industry with an uncompromising commitment to protect the environment and providing long-lasting and responsible fabric solutions that contribute to safe and healthy indoor spaces.
