Vintage French Woven Textile Picture – Ruban Tissé – Saint-Étienne – Framed
There’s something quietly nostalgic about this piece.
This is not a paper print or a photograph.
It is a woven textile image (“Ruban Tissé”) produced in Saint-Étienne, France — a region historically known for jacquard ribbon and textile artwork.
The charming Victorian-style scene shows three children gathered around a small basket, rendered in detailed black and white weaving. The texture is visible up close — the image is created through thread, not ink.
Estimated period: circa 1935–1950.
