At ANICHINI we strive to offer you the best and most interesting textiles in every category, from the rare and subtle handlooms to the most durable and unique contract fabrics.
ANICHINI has long been known for luxurious and unusual fabrics. Our Residential Collection is a global one. We seek small talented high quality weavers who produce fabrics and designs that are not available anywhere else. Rich Ottoman brocades from Turkey, rugged but unique linen from Lithuania and thick tapestries from Italy, to name a few.
We at ANICHINI have a passion for all things authentic. Handloomed fabrics are at the top of our list! These textiles are produced in a manner that has been handed down through the millenia. Handloomed textiles have a quality of richness and depth missing from commercially produced textiles. There are irregularities and nuances of color and texture that are deeply pleasing to the eye and hand. Handlooms are the “genuine article” of textiles.
For more than 25 years the world’s leading designers have recognized ANICHINI for its progressive constructions, creative fiber blends, and extraordinary breadth of colors and neutrals. High quality materials, deeply researched designs, product longevity, flexible and personalized customer service and stock status are the key ingredients for ANICHINI Contract. These contract groupings include textures that represent everything from enduring applications and weave interpretations throughout textile history to sophisticated constructions inspired by fashion and industrial design.
ANICHINI has its roots in the world of antique textiles which is why the products have the true vibration of authenticity about them. Our Rare Finds Collection features just that – very rare, handmade products. Most of the craftspeople producing these items are among the last in the world. As technology rushes forward, handmade and handcrafted items become more and more unique. The items in this collection are truly collectors’ items and the “antiques of the future.” It is our mission to support these remarkable artisans and to keep these crafts alive for as long as possible.
The Rubiyat Pillow, featured here in New England Home, is one of these extraordinary works of art. The dense embroidery of this design is covered with small French knots. The richness and depth of the embroidery staggers the imagination! Made entirely of silk and embroidered by hand. Available online, at our Showrooms and LA Store, or by calling customer service.
We are pleased to have our Nobel Linen Napkins featured on Studio of Style. In their post “In the lap of luxury: ANICHINI Napkins” they say:
“…we’re always on the lookout for napkins that can change along with the mood, the food and the vibe we’re trying to capture when we want to create an outstanding dinner party. And with all the dinner parties that go on here in Hollywood, that can be a challenge unto itself — which is why we were thrilled to discover (and now you know too!) these 24″ x 24″ “Nobel” hand-loomed herringbone linen napkins from Anichini in 22 delicious colors (15 of which are shown here). With such a chic rainbow of stylish colors to choose from, you’ll be thinking of excuses to have dinner parties just to show them off! They’re sturdy and their classic look and hand-made hemstitch means that they’ll always be your go-to napkins for every occasion.”

We are pleased to have our scarves featured in the Go Design Go Holiday Gift Guide. Go Design Go, the design blog for the Cohen Design Centers – DDB in New York, DCOTA in Florida, PDC in California, and DCH in Texas – put together their guide to help designers looking for the perfect holiday gifts.
And they chose our scarves for their list saying…

Following the article by Luxury Daily, we are pleased to have been featured in The Hollywood Reporter’s take on product placement in the Twilight Series’ Breaking Dawn movie – describing how luxury brands took to the big screen, saying -
“Anichini, the makers of luxury linens, showed off their expensive Italian bed sheets in the best light during the honeymoon scene. The company is now having a Facebook contest to win the honeymoon sheets. “
We are pleased to have been featured in Luxury Daily‘s recount of product placement in the Twilight Series’ Breaking Dawn movie – describing how luxury brands took to the big screen.
“Luxury brands such as Manolo Blahnik, Carolina Herrera and BMW all took advantage of the big screen with product placements in the latest “Twilight” saga series, “Breaking Dawn” …brands such as Anichini linens, J Brand jeans, Volvo and a Bombardier private jet were also found in the movie…”
Anichini linens spread the reach of its product placement by sending out an email to its newsletter subscribers alerting them to the Twilight Breaking Dawn placement, since the brand’s sheets were used in the honeymoon suite.”
Luxury Daily goes on to pose the question: “while the Breaking Dawn movie had the fifth biggest opening weekend in U.S. history, the question is whether or not the movie’s core consumers are the same as luxury brand’s target consumers?”
We think everyone should have the chance to experience the most extraordinary sheets in the world!
