Long a destination for connoisseurs of classic design, Scalamandré’s legacy began over 85 years ago when Franco Scalamandré began producing silk reproduction textiles for historic properties. For many decades, the Scalamandré weaving in New York City manufactured the finest, most luxurious and exquisitely crafted mill-based fabrics, trimmings and wallpapers for the best-dressed interiors in America. Today, Scalamandré continues to showcase its iconic designs, as well as exciting new introductions that reflect the most current design and color trends in modern interiors.

Throughout its history and to this day, Scalamandré has been called upon to work on many of America’s most extraordinary properties. Historic restoration and cultural commissions number well over a thousand. Among these are the White House, the United States Capitol, The Department of the Treasury, Monticello, Mount Vernon, Colonial Williamsburg, the Morgan Library, the Wrightsman Galleries at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Winterthur, the Newport Mansions, Radio City Music Hall, and the Metropolitan Opera House. Additionally, Scalamandré remains the pre-eminent resource for America's leading designers and decorators for their most distinguished custom textile, wallpaper and trimmings projects.

In early 2017, Scalamandré merged with Stark, operating under the Scalamandré name. In addition to continuing its eponymous brand, Scalamandré now adds to its family the prestigious Old World Weavers and Grey Watkins brands, as well as Boris Kroll. The company also represents many renowned international brands, such as Lelièvre, Colony and Missoni Home. There are 13 Scalamandré to-the-trade showrooms in major metropolitan locations, including its flagship New York location. In addition, its products are distributed around the world, through sales representatives and agent showrooms.
