A Note About Silhouette and Nantucket

 

Fabrics

As with all textiles, Silhouette and Nantucket fabrics are subject to some variations. Slight 
wrinkling, puckering, or bowing is inherent to this textile product and should be considered 
normal, acceptable quality. These characteristics are not usually visible from the front or rear 
but may be visible from a side angle.

Precautions should be taken to reduce exposure to harsh environmental elements, such as 
salt air. Continuous exposure through open windows and doors will accelerate the fabric 
deterioration.
