ABSTRACT:
A drapery fabric sample, or like fabric sample, is displayed in an effective yet simple manner. A drapery fabric sample having unpleated top, bottom, and sides edges is mounted in association with a cantilever arm. The arm is preferably a rectangular configuration plastic arm having a hinge pin at least one end, and a tab surface and side surfaces for receiving the top edge of a drape sample. The arm also preferably includes first and second sections which are mounted for pivotal movement with respect to each other by a vertical hinge. The drape sample, after engaging the tab and side surfaces is wrapped around the arm at least once, and the arm is mounted by a channel which receives the pivot pin(s) so that it extends generally horizontally. The arm sections are pivoted to be generally parallel to each other to display the drapery sample in a low volume configuration, and when a viewer wishes to view the drapery sample in more detail the arm is removed from the channel and then the arms are pivoted so that they are generally in line with each other, to fully display the drapery sample.
