DESIGNER'S NOTES

An elegant floral Fox & Chave crêpe de Chine silk scarf with a design in the Aubusson style.

Aubusson is a style of fine tapestry and carpet weaving originating from the town in central France of the same name.

Renowned since the 17th century, Aubusson tapestries are handwoven using the low-warp (basse-lisse) technique and are celebrated for their detailed pictorial scenes, often featuring pastoral landscapes, mythology, or floral designs.

These textiles became highly prized in aristocratic and royal interiors across Europe. Aubusson remains a symbol of French luxury craftsmanship, and its workshops are recognised by UNESCO for preserving this rich cultural and artistic heritage.
