Cotton jacquard is an exceptional fabric resulting from a complex weaving process that allows patterns to be integrated directly into the material, without printing or embroidery. Appreciated for its unique relief and robustness, it is widely used in the field of high-end textiles, whether for furnishings or clothing. Discover why this ancestral technique, combining innovation and craftsmanship, is at the heart of our creations.

What is cotton jacquard?

Jacquard is a process developed in the 19th century by Joseph Marie Jacquard, revolutionizing weaving by allowing the programming of complex patterns using punch cards. Unlike printed fabrics, where patterns are simply applied to the surface, cotton jacquard is constructed thread by thread, giving it greater strength and unparalleled visual depth.

Composed mainly of cotton, a natural fiber known for its softness and breathability, jacquard is distinguished by its textured structure and refined touch. It lends itself equally well to the creation of fashion items as to the world of interior decoration.

A high-end fabric serving luxury and design

In clothing, cotton jacquard is used for jackets, dresses and suits of great sophistication, offering a structured drape and an elegant look. In decoration, it is preferred for curtains, cushions, tapestries and especially plaids, where its dense weave brings warmth and comfort.

The particularity of jacquard lies in its ability to create raised patterns with subtle plays of color and light. However, the resulting shades are often more muted than those of a printed fabric.

A unique approach to color in our plaids

Cotton jacquard, due to its weaving method, offers more muted and nuanced colors. To avoid a dull finish and give more depth to the patterns, we have chosen to integrate yellow and red threads. This technique warms up the color palette, brings more contrast and liveliness to the designs while preserving the natural elegance of the fabric. In addition, this addition of specific threads also contributes to a heavier, denser and therefore even more enveloping plaid.

Why did we choose cotton jacquard for our blankets?

Our cotton jacquard throws are designed to offer a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality. Thanks to this weaving technique, we have been able to develop pieces that are both luxurious and durable, with essential characteristics:

• A rich and sophisticated visual rendering : the depth of the woven patterns brings timeless elegance.

• Enveloping warmth : the tight weave and thickness of the cotton effectively retain heat, making our blankets perfect allies for winter.

• Greater weight : cotton jacquard is heavier than other types of weaves, thus reinforcing the feeling of comfort and perceived quality.

• Better resistance over time : thanks to the interlacing of the threads, the fabric is robust and does not deform easily.
