Antique French Aubusson Tapestry Pillow

About the Item

The history of Aubusson textiles dates back to the 14th century. The town of Aubusson is located in the La Marche area of France, which is located at the base of the Creuse River. It was inhabited as early as the Iron Age, and remains from the Gallo-Roman period leave evidence of a thriving and active town. The town’s weaving workshops started creating pieces in the 14th century with small family workshops grouped in the traditional guild system. The weaving industry prospered and grew as highly skilled weavers from Flanders took refuge in Aubusson. The town was ideally situated for this textile production as the Creuse River’s acidic water helped to degrease wool and fix dyes. less
