Toile
Type of fabric / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a French canvas fabric. For the French netting fabric, see Tulle (netting). For the sanitation fixture, see toilet.
Toile (French for "canvas") is a textile fabric comparable to fine batiste with a cloth weave. Natural silk or chemical fiber filaments are usually used as materials.[1] The word toile can refer to the fabric itself or to a test garment sewn from calico. The French term toile entered the English language around the 12th century, was used in the Middle Ages[2] and meanwhile has disappeared.[3]
