The intricate field and tournament armor (ca. 1565) of Johann Wilhelm, Duke of Saxe-Weimar, is a finely crafted work attributed to the leading armorer of Augsburg, Germany, Anton Peffenhauser. The elaborate etched decoration inspired the creation of our Paisley Embroidered Tape, which displays the same floral teardrop pattern in alternating colors. Our tape is crafted with elegant viscose embroidery on the linen-and-cotton ground to replicate the armor’s detailing and uses a tone-on-tone palette to create both contrast and consistency.
