Official Plaid – Living Nativity in the Sassi of Matera 2025

The Living Nativity Plaid of the Sassi of Matera is the official edition created by Texture Italy for the 2025 event.
A high-quality jacquard throw, woven on a loom with an original design inspired by the Nativity and the city of Matera.

The motif is not printed but knitted directly into the fabric, using the jacquard technique which employs two colours in each weaving pass, giving depth, durability and a sophisticated woven effect.
The blend of virgin wool, viscose, polyamide and cashmere ensures warmth, softness and long-lasting comfort, making this plaid a true collectible item.
