Jacquard, named after its inventor Mr. Jacquard, who also invented the semi-automatic loom. Jacquard is not a material but a weaving effect with woven patterns.
This silk jacquard is decorated with golden bubbles on a black silk veil. It can be used in clothing, furnishings, decoration, and certain creative hobbies. It is also used to make luxurious jackets and dresses.
Note on the photograph: this jacquard is laid on black satin.
Jacquard made in Italy.
From the journal
g/ml tells you what the metre you buy weighs, g/m² what the fabric itself weighs. The formula, a table by width, and when to look at which.
Momme measures how much a square metre of silk weighs. Where it comes from, how to work it out from our weights in g/ml, and what it does (or doesn’t) tell you about a fabric.
