Eagle & Leopard - historical brocade with this motif is suitable for sewing period costumes. Replica of the original 14th-century brocade from the Italian region of Sicily. These patterns were highly sought after throughout Europe, primarily because these brocades featured woven metallic threads. Italy was a powerhouse in silk weaving during the 14th century in Europe, producing exceptionally technically advanced silk fabrics.
Brocade was a historical term typically used to describe a fabric, usually silk, with a distinct jacquard pattern. Patterns were woven with threads containing expensive metallic fibers, such as silver or gold. However, the term "brocade" later began to be used for any fabric with a rich pattern. The technique for producing brocades originated in the Middle East. All our fabrics are high quality product.
