A vibrant artwork from our archives with delicate floral details. The use of floral bouquets began as early as Ancient Egypt, with paintings on tombs depicting flowers in vases placed as offerings and ornaments for celebrations. #gainsboroughweaving

Last week we attended another successful Making it in Textiles conference. #MiiT2019 brings leading industry professionals together with students from universities across the Uk to talk about the variety of roles available within the textiles industry.
Richard Humphries, the founder of @humphriesweaving, gave students a unique insight into his industry. #MiiT2019 #MakingItInTextiles #Textiles #Silk #SilkMill #Weaving #Weavers #craft

The striking Mineral design by @aotextiles woven here at Gainsborough. It was one of four designs produced using traditional weaving techniques and combining re-cycled yarns with a naturally dyed weft - a stunning example of sustainable luxury. #gainsboroughweaving
