The Jacquard weaving technique used to make this scarf involves interweaving silk warp threads and silk weft threads in a specific pattern. To achieve this, the “La Fabrique d'écharpe” weaving workshop uses Jacquard looms. The “Jacquard” loom was developed by Joseph Marie Jacquard of Lyon in 1801, and was the first programmable mechanical system with perforated cards to produce patterns by crossing colored threads. Thanks to know-how handed down from generation to generation since 1880, we now have electronically controlled “Jacquard” looms that guarantee the perfect quality of our fabrics while respecting the purest Lyonnais tradition.
