TWO FACED EMBOSSED CHENILLE PLUSH FABRIC.
faPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 392,699, dated November 13, 1888.
Application filed April 17, 1888. Serial No.270,945. (N0 specimens.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM T. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented and produced a new article of manufacture-a Two- Face Embossed Chenille Plush Fabric; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention belongs to a class of woven fabrics known as two-face chenille, having a plush pile on both faces. This fabric is passed under engraved rolls or plates heated and under pressure, by which means I produce a new article of manufacture-a two-face embossed chenille plush.
The object of my invention is to produce a two-face ornamental serviceable plush fabric at low cost of production, which fabric may be used for most all grades of upholstery-work, lap-robes, mats, rugs, and other like articles.
Previous to my invention plush has been embossed by engraved rolls heated and under pressure, but such plush has only one plush face. (When plush is used for curtains, it is desirable to have plush on both sides.) Single or one face plush is woven on looms using movable pile-wires, or such plush is woven face to face and separated by cutting the pile between the two backs.
My plush is made in the same manner as the fabrics for chenille Turcoman curtains are now made--that is, the chenille fur is first woven in a web,which web is cut longitudinal between each set of warp threads that has been cross-woven, so that when the strips are separated by cutting from the web they have a tendency to twist. These strips of chenille fur are used as weft in weaving a two-face plush, which two-face plush, after taken from the loom, may be sheared, if so desired. Itis then passed under an engraved roll, which will emboss on both sides of the fabric such ornamental design as may be engraved on the roll.
The accompanying drawings represent face views of pieces of chenille fabrics. Figure 1 represents plain plush. Fig. 2 represents embossed chenille plush.
The opposite face of the fabric (not shown) will show the same ornamental configuration as that which is shown.
The chenille-fur pile may be woven or made of vegetable or animal fiber. The fur may be of such color desired mottled, clouded, or particolored.
To make a fine grade of goods shiela may be used for weft, and, if desired, chenille or shiela may be used for both warp and weft.
I do not broadly claim an embossed plush fabric; but
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A two-face embossed chenille plush fabric as a new article of manufacture,made as shown and described.
