Abstract: A container includes a pair of flaps, which can be brought close to one another, one of the flaps having a buttonhole; and a clasp designed to get through the buttonhole. The clasp includes an anchoring portion, which is fixed to the other one of the flaps; a wide portion, which is designed to prevent the clasp from moving apart from the buttonhole; and an intermediate connection portion, connected, through a pair of hinges, to the anchoring portion and to the wide portion, respectively. The wide portion and the anchoring portion are configured to rotate relative to the intermediate portion, so that the clasp is able to assume a plurality of operating conditions. The buttonhole is designed to interact with the clasp based on the operating condition assumed by the clasp, allowing the flaps or walls be brought close to one another or preventing them from moving apart.

Abstract: A fabric is made up of at least two laps (20, 21), each of which is formed by a series (22, 24) of longitudinal threads of yarn that are interwoven with one or more series (23, 25) of threads of yarn transverse to these. The first (20) and second laps (21) are joined along a common interweave stretch (30), respectively, parallel to the threads of warp yarn (22, 24) or parallel to the threads of weft yarn (23, 25) and in which the threads of weft yarn (23, 25) and of warp yarn (22, 24) of the two laps (20, 21) are interwoven. The common interweave stretch (30) extends laterally to the laps (20, 21) in such a way as to form a sort of third lap of width at least sufficient to guarantee the solidity of the join of the laps (20, 21) along the stretch of joining (30).

Abstract: A process obtains an aged or faded effect on garments made of protein fibers such as wool, cashmere and silk. Granules of inert materials, which are particularly light in order not to damage very fine fibers, are introduced into a tumbler. The garments were previously treated with a chemical product commonly referred to as “dye retardant” for inhibiting dyeing of the fabric. The tumbler is pre-arranged so that the chemical product does not migrate through holes or openings. Raw confectioned garments that are to be treated, such as jerseys or outerwear, are introduced into the tumbler. The garments are extracted from the tumbler at the end of migration of the chemical product for inhibiting dyeing of the outer surface of the garments by the granules and steamed in an autoclave to fix the chemical process of the product for inhibiting dyeing of the outer surface of the garments. The garments are then dyed with a specific selection of dyes that must be defined each time according to the desired result.

Abstract: A fabric obtained by working yarn results from twisting of natural fibres in which the natural fibres are animal fibres twisted with a strand of silk.

Abstract: Described herein is a covering for an elasticized band for a shoe provided with a tongue; the shoe is of the type in which the upper, in a position corresponding to the instep of the foot, has a tongue contained between two sides flaps of the upper, and, inside the shoe, an elasticized band extends between the two flaps of upper in a position facing the tongue; the covering is constituted by a lining, which lines in bridge-like fashion the elasticized band from inside the shoe, and is fixed, on one side, to the upper, in the proximity of the edge of attachment of the tongue and, on the other side, to the end edge of the tongue itself.

Abstract: A process for obtaining an aged or faded effect on garments made of protein fibres such as wool, cashmere and silk comprises the following steps: introduction into a tumbler of a plurality of granules of inert materials, which are particularly light in order not to damage the very fine fibres of which the garments are made, the garments being previously imbibed with a chemical product for inhibiting dyeing of the fabric, of the type commonly referred to as “dye retardant”; the tumbler being pre-arranged in order not to cause migration of the aforesaid chemical product through holes or openings; introduction of the raw confectioned garments, whether jerseys or outerwear, that are to undergo treatment into the aforesaid tumbler; extraction of the garments from the tumbler at the end of migration of the chemical product for inhibiting dyeing of the outer surface of the garments by the granules, and steaming in autoclave to fix the chemical process, i.e.
