Colour expresses something in itself. One can’t do without it; one must make use of it. What looks beautiful, really beautiful — is also right.

About Dutch Fabric

Since the early ’90s we slowly started designing this unique collection of printed cotton fabrics which we call “Dutch chintzes”.

“Dutch” because most of the designs originally are inspired by authentic documents from Dutch Museums and private collections.

“Chintzes”  because inspite of using modern dyes and production methods, we try as much as possible to respect the authentic designs such as drawings and colourings.

Furthermore the Dutch chintzes are completely produced in our factory in Goor- The Netherlands.

The Dutch chintzes are presented as the collection Den Haan & Wagenmakers and sold in our shop.
