Fabrics for living history hobbyists

We offer a wide range of historical textiles for living history hobbyists. Almost all of our fabrics are historically accurate and consist of 100% natural fibres, such as wool, linen, silk, or cotton. During our purchasing process, the fabrics undergo a strict selection, and we always do the well-known fire test before we include a certain fabric in our range. Fabrics with synthetic fibres are therefore not included in our range. This way, you as a living history hobbyist are guaranteed a historically responsible fabric that fits the period and area you are portraying.

Our assortment of naturally dyed fabrics

Classic Fabrics also regularly offers hand-dyed and traditionally dyed fabrics and textiles at friendly prices. This way, you give your new outfit an even greater historical character. Our hand-dyed fabrics are dyed with vegetable and historically accurate dyes, such as madder, indigo, heather, walnut, rhubarb root, farmer’s weed, camille and other dried plant species. Because we are always looking for the best quality for our customers, our range of traditionally dyed fabrics is constantly changing, and some fabrics may become unavailable over time. Of course, we will provide an equivalent alternative.
