Provencal Fabric

Provençal fabric is a traditional textile from the south-east of France. Its history goes back several centuries and is closely linked to the culture and identity of the region.

The history of Provençal fabric dates back to the Middle Ages, when Provence was an important center of textile production in Europe. At that time, local weavers mainly produced linen and hemp fabrics, which were used to make clothing and household items.


It was in the 17th century that Provençal fabric experienced a period of prosperity. The technique of woodblock textile printing, imported from India, was introduced in Provence. Provençal craftsmen quickly adapted this technique and began to create colorful and intricate designs on fabrics.

The traditional patterns of Provencal fabric are inspired by nature, with floral motifs, fruits, animals. Bright colors and geometric patterns are also characteristic of Provencal fabric.

Over time, Provençal fabric has become emblematic of the region and has been widely used in home decor, clothing and fashion accessories. Dresses, tablecloths, petticoats, cushions and bags were often made from this colorful fabric.
