The Jacquard weave is a sophisticated and intricate weaving technique that allows for the creation of complex and highly detailed patterns in fabric. Named after its inventor, Joseph Marie Jacquard, who developed the Jacquard loom in the early 19th century, this weave revolutionized the textile industry.

Fabrics woven with the Jacquard technique include brocade, damask, and tapestry. Each of these fabrics is known for its decorative patterns and rich textures.
