Description
Stevengraphs are pictures woven from silk, originally created by Thomas Stevens in the 19th century. Thomas Stevens, a local weaver, adapted the Jacquard looms used in Coventry to weave colorful pictures from silk. By 1862, Stevens could produce four different designs and by the late 1880s this increased to over 900. They became known as "Stevengraphs", after their maker. Many of these designs were used to produce bookmarks, while others were used to make greeting cards and other silk objects.
