As mentioned, Cotton Canvas for an older used tent, we got our Cotton tent new in 2008, although it was manufactured during 2007. So it's ten years old now.

It has been used most years since purchase, although only for a fortnight or so per time, plenty of exposure to the sun though, as we only ever go camping to the South East off France during July.

And I can happily report that the canvas is still almost as new, and has that smell that you only get from Cotton canvas.

I would say it will be good for at least another 20 odd years.

I did wince at spending £699 on the tent at the time, but it does seem to have been money well spent.
