Since 1833, Gérardmer has housed a unique savoir-faire: jacquard and damask weaving. Discover two EPV-certified houses exporting French art de vivre to 120+ countries.
In the Vosges mountains, two names embody French linen excellence for nearly two centuries: Garnier-Thiebaut (founded 1833 in Gérardmer) and Le Jacquard Français. Both EPV-certified, they export to over 120 countries.
Garnier-Thiebaut: Jacquard Excellence Since 1833
Specializing in jacquard weaving and damask, Garnier-Thiebaut dresses the tables of the world’s finest hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants.
Damask — where patterns emerge through the interplay of light on satin and matte threads — is the house signature.
Le Jacquard Français: The Art of Narrative Weaving
Collections tell stories: botanical gardens, French landscapes, fauna and flora, interpreted in remarkably fine weaving.
“Table linen is not an accessory — it is the first gesture of hospitality.”
The Vosges: Cradle of French Linen
The pure mountain water, essential for bleaching and dyeing, attracted weavers since the 17th century. The “Vosges terre textile” label guarantees local quality manufacturing.
