01
Fibre
Raw fibre, graded and cleaned.
Every cloth starts as fibre — its length and fineness decide what the weave can do.
Concept catalogue — Nº 01

Vestra.
Cloth woven to be cut, sewn and lived in.
This is a concept catalogue, not a shop. Browse six collections, study the weaves, and request a volume quote for your project.
The loom journey
02
Spinning
Fibre drawn out and twisted into yarn.
Yarn is spun even and strong; a weak yarn breaks on the loom.
03
Weaving
Yarn crossed on the loom, pick by pick.
The weave is the cloth's character — plain, twill, satin or dobby.
04
Finishing
Washed, set and checked, metre by metre.
Finishing sets the hand and the width; inspection catches what the loom missed.
01 — The catalogue
Six collections,
six different cloths.

Back to collections ↑03 — How it is made
Fibre, yarn,
loom — in that order.
Four stages, none of them rushed. The order matters more than the speed: a yarn spun unevenly will not weave evenly.
01
Fibre
It starts as raw fibre — graded by hand for length and fineness. A short, uneven fibre spins a weak yarn, so this slow step is never skipped.
Step 01 / 04 — Next: Spinning
02
Spinning
The fibre is drawn out and twisted into yarn on the spinning frame. The yarn is spun even and strong — a weak yarn breaks on the loom, and a broken warp stops the whole weave.
Step 02 / 04 — Next: Weaving
03
Weaving
On the loom, warp and weft cross pick by pick. The weave is the cloth's character — plain, twill, satin or dobby — and it is set here, not afterwards.
Step 03 / 04 — Next: Finishing & QC
04
Finishing & QC
The cloth is washed, set to width and checked metre by metre. Finishing sets the hand; inspection catches what the loom missed — a missed pick, a thick place, a stain.
Step 04 / 04 — Then it ships
04 — Weaves & weights
Build your cloth.
Three choices decide how a Vestra cloth behaves: the weave, the weight and where it is used. Try them — the swatch in the preview follows along.
Your combination
Plain weave · 150 cm · 180 gsm · Apparel
Plain weave weave in 150 cm · 180 gsm, for apparel use. One over, one under — the even, everyday weave. Breathes well, presses crisp. Mid-weight — dresses, shirts and light suiting. Shirts, dresses, suiting — cloth cut and sewn.
Indicative options in this concept catalogue — no prices are shown. Send the combination with your quote request and it will be priced for your project.

See the weave before the cloth.
Four weaves, five colourways. Pick a weave and a colour — the preview is woven thread by thread, so you can see how the structure changes the cloth.

07 — About the catalogue
Vestra is a study in one material. Fibre spun, woven, finished and checked — then cut, sewn and worn. Everything in this catalogue follows that single line, from a shirt cloth to a workwear twill.
The collections are organised the way a trade buyer thinks: by use and by cloth, not by trend. A shirt, a curtain, a uniform — each one needs a different weave, a different weight, a different tolerance for wear. The catalogue answers those questions before the quote does.

An honest note. Vestra is a concept — a demo e-commerce and B2B portal for a textile trading house, designed by Exvorta. The collections, weaves and weights shown are catalogue options in this concept. No orders are processed here and no figures on this site describe a real company's results.
