Aragon Tapestry: Dragon-Inspired or Not?

Feathered elegance takes flight in the exquisite Aragon Liturgical Tapestry Fabric, where birds grace the textile canvas in subtle hues of white and blue. A tapestry rooted in ecclesiastical history, the Indo-Portuguese design of Aragon has adorned sacred spaces since the 18th century. Beyond birds, this resplendent fabric weaves a narrative of early Christian symbols, featuring a vibrant Jardiniere, flowers, and grapes in a burst of colors. The Aragon Tapestry unfolds on a cream backdrop, presenting two captivating fabrications: Rayon (sans metallic fibers) and Lurex (adorned with gold metallic threads), each offering a distinct allure.

Design Options

Versatile and timeless, Aragon Tapestry is not confined to a singular purpose. Ideal for Roman-style chasubles, stoles, orphreys, and altar hangings, this fabric beckons to be part of diverse vestment projects. Whether enveloping an entire project or serving as captivating accents, Aragon harmonizes seamlessly when combined with other fabrics, offering limitless design possibilities. The pastoral stole, adorned with either the Jardiniere or the vine as the main design theme, emerges as a testimony to the fabric’s versatile charm. Its compatibility extends to various liturgical fabrics, from cream yarn-dyed options to luxurious silk and wool textures.
