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.
