Velvet Brush
Velvet is a living fabric, it responds to touch, to light, to the direction of its pile and like all beautiful things, it rewards those who take care of it. The Piedaterre Velvet Brush is the essential companion for anyone who owns a pair of Friulane slippers, designed specifically to preserve the rich texture and visual depth that make natural cotton velvet so captivating. A few moments of attention after wearing is all it takes to keep the pile lifted and luminous, maintaining the appearance that first drew you to your Piedaterre pair.
To use, brush gently in the direction of the pile after each wear, using light, even strokes that lift surface dust without compressing the fibers beneath. For areas where the pile has flattened from sitting, travel, or storage, short sweeping motions restore the velvet's natural loft and sheen. The bristles are calibrated to be firm enough to revive compressed fibers yet soft enough to never damage the delicate cotton surface. Regular use prevents dust from settling into the weave, the simplest and most effective form of velvet shoe care. Whether you own a pair of Modigliani Velvet Friulane or any other velvet style, this brush serves them all.
Every pair of Piedaterre Friulane represents an investment in artisanal quality handmade, hand-sewn, and built to endure. The Velvet Brush ensures that investment is protected over the months and years ahead, keeping the cotton velvet as expressive as the day it arrived. Consider it the final piece of the Piedaterre experience: the small, purposeful gesture that connects the care you give your slippers to the care our artisans gave in making them.

Piedàterre velvet Friulane require simple maintenance to preserve their beauty over time:
Daily cleaning: gently brush with a velvet brush following the grain in circular motions.
Light stains: dab with a damp cloth without rubbing. Allow to air dry, away from direct heat sources.
Storage: store the Friulane in a dry place. Avoid compressing the velvet to prevent crushing the fibers.

Yes, slight differences in shade between the color displayed on screen and the actual product color are possible. This depends on several factors: monitor calibration, the lighting conditions in which the photo was taken and viewed, and the artisanal nature of the velvet dyeing process, which can produce minor variations between batches.
Some colors, such as Azure, are particularly sensitive to these perception differences. We constantly strive to make our photographs as accurate as possible.
