Paisley is a Scottish town near Glasgow and\u00a0had a\u00a0substantial textile production in the 19th century. At that time British soldiers brought back cashmere scarves from the colonies in India and because Queen Victoria was very much in favour of these embroidered paisley designs\u00a0she became a trendsetter.<\/p>\n
While only a few could afford these precious originals, Scottish weavers from Paisley started to produce much\u00a0more affordable\u00a0scarves from local wool and hereby gave the design\u00a0its name. Traditionally the design\u00a0shows different tones of red. Now Paisleys can be found in all different colour combinations and\u00a0are widely used for ties and scarves. In our collection you will always find a broad offer of this beautiful and versatile design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
