. What 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.

For the past 100 years it has featured quality work based mostly on classical paintings.

I have been sewing tapestries for 20 years. Creating a tapestry is a kind of art. Each tapestry is done manually and professionally with high quality.Quality materials of big robustness and endurance are used in the manufacture, such as high quality choice flaxen ground , world known types of thread: DMC, WIEHLER as well as others.The tapestry represents a picture made of special threads instead of paints. Making a tapestry using lots of colours allows the legato gradation and bulging of the details, which makes the final product looking like a real painting – an exquisite peace of art is brought into the world. All this requires hard work and many weeks and months, sewing patiently stitch after stitch.The tapestry is an inspiration. Inspiration from the opportunity of the affectionateness, the light and the beauty of the one who beset our angelic on our homes, the nearly impossible with arms and soul is being created, for they make happy the loves people.
