GOBELIN - HAND MADE Created By GOBELIN on Dec 17 2007 13:39What is a Gobelin? Gobelins are hand-embroidered tapestries, sewed with special threads by skilled craftsmen/craftswomen. Gobelins are usually inspired from famous paintings or religious art. A gobelin lasts depending on the quality of its threads. At least 200 years are needed until its colors begin to fade. What is PPT? In gobelin making, Petit Point refers to one diagonal needlepoint stitch. There are two techniques used for stitching or sewing gobelins. Petit Point 1:1 is when each sign from the chart equals one stitch. Naturally, Petit Point 1:4 means that each sign would equal four stitches arranged in a square. Generally, gobelins done in PPT 1:1 would be more detailed. What is the Wiehler Catalogue? Founded in Berlin by Jakobs Wiehler, the Wiehler Gobelin Catalogue has been going strong since 1st of April 1893. For the past 100 years it has featured quality work based mostly on classical paintings. Today, the Wiehler Catalogue has become immensely popular in Germany, Austria, the Balkans, and Southern Russia. iChannel TAG: tapestry |
