Antique European Paisley shawls are a type of shawl that originated in Europe in the 19th century. They are named after the town of Paisley in Scotland, where the distinctive teardrop-shaped design was first produced using a traditional Jacquard loom. These shawls were highly fashionable during the Victorian era and were often made from luxurious materials such as silk or cashmere. They were popular accessories for women's formalwear and were often draped over the shoulders or wrapped around the body. Antique European Paisley shawls are highly sought after by collectors today due to their intricate designs and historical significance. They can be quite valuable depending on their age, condition, and provenance. Some of the most notable producers of Paisley shawls were French textile manufacturers such as Brousses et Sana and Ducharne et Cie, as well as Scottish firms like James Templeton & Co. and Paisley-based weavers like J. & P. Coats. Overall, antique European Paisley shawls are a beautiful example of the craftsmanship and creativity of the 19th century textile industry, and they continue to be admired and appreciated by collectors and enthusiasts today.

19th Century Hand-Woven Paisley Shawl
Located in Barrington, IL
An exquisite 19th-century hand-woven Paisley shawl from Northwest India, featuring an elegant color palette of brick red, ivory, black, and green. This historic textile showcases a finely detailed paisley border, with larger stylized boteh (paisley) motifs at each end. The central field is rendered in a contrasting solid black, creating a striking visual balance and framing the intricate design. Originating from Kashmir, these shawls—sometimes called “Paisley” or “Piano” shawls—became highly fashionable in Europe during the Victorian era, especially after Queen Victoria popularized them. The design and craftsmanship of these Indian shawls later inspired the iconic production of similar pieces in Paisley, Scotland, throughout the 19th century. This richly woven textile can be elegantly draped over a table or bed or displayed as a piece of wall art, making it an ideal statement in classic, bohemian, or globally inspired interiors. A rare and collectible piece of textile history that combines cultural heritage with timeless style.
