Jacquard fabric is woven on a Jacquard loom — a mechanism that controls individual warp yarns independently, allowing complex patterns to be built directly into the weave structure. The pattern is not printed or embroidered — it is structural, which means it cannot fade, crack or peel.
Types of jacquard fabric: Damask — typically single-colour with a reversible pattern, used in upholstery and formal wear. Brocade — multi-colour, with a raised pattern effect, used in occasion wear and luxury garments. Matelassé — quilted appearance, used in jackets, bags and structured garments. Cutwork jacquard — open areas within the weave, used in lightweight fashion applications.
What to check when sourcing jacquard: weave complexity the manufacturer can handle, minimum order for custom patterns, repeat size limitations, and whether pattern development is done in-house.
At Janki Nath & Co., we weave jacquard fabrics in cotton, viscose, linen and blended compositions. Custom patterns developed from your design brief. Development quantities and bulk both available.
