Thanks Dizzie, Yes it is really hard and frustrating using a camera to show what our eyes actually see. It seems that Duvaltex will still send a card sample of swatches if your order (I believe there must be some charge for this) I got a yard (minimum) of each color available 2 years ago which is how I was able to take the photos of swatches you see in my post. They are a significant weight (I’m flying in from Japan) so I will just bring a selection to the California show next month. If someone is coming and wants me to bring a color I can do that if requested.
I used these photos to help one customer last week to choose (he had narrowed down to these types of colors) and the close up (wheat against walnut) helped him decide the final.
