I just purchased a coat that is made in Italy and it says it's 100% Cupro but I can't find the Italian definition of this word? Does anyone know the definition of "cupro"? Thanks, Taramisu

it means cuppro, bras ( it is that yellow metal that looks like goldbutit is not as value as gold. butit is strange for a coat to be made of 'cupro'....are you sure this is the word?

Thanks for your reponse. The coat has two labels. The first one says: Cinzia Rocca due Made in Italy and the second one says: Fodera Bemberg 100% Cupro

Cuppro with the double "p" is indeed copper... Not very often used for jackets ;-) No really, it is like silk... Look at my next post!
