The art of embroidery

The history of embroidery



Embroidery is the art of ornament. This is a relatively complex technique to achieve, which consists of needle embroidery a pattern, flat or in relief, made up of single threads on a fabric, and sometimes, by integrating materials such as sequins, pearls or precious stones.


This skill has been known since ancient times, although the word was not coined until the 12th century. The oldest embroideries come to us from Egypt. From Antiquity to the Middle Ages, the peoples of the East and around the Mediterranean were known to be fine and talented embroiderers. Later between the 10th and the 13th century, the ladies of the court reproduced the patterns by taking inspiration from the oriental rugs brought back by their husbands during the Crusades. In addition, embroidery was also used to adorn noble clothes, accessible only to high society. Embroidery was of great value and this skill spread as the foundation of women's education.


Embroidery is not only a sign of elegance but also of social distinction for those who wear it.

Fashions and trends have continued to evolve, leaving embroidery at the heart of trends and being declined on more and more support.
