Do you recognise the pattern on this fabric shown on the book cover??
Yes? But did you know that textiles with the pattern as shown, made their way from Eisenach around the globe, starting about 1850 as so called «Buttertücher»?
Take this historical glass polishing towel home with you, together with the story of the Duchess
Helene of Orléans, who lived in the Eisenach castle and supported the poor regional weavers by making this textile idea
fashionable and popular throughout Thuringia.
How? Well, read the story and learn interesting history about Eisenach, Thuringia and the area, today called «Germany», during the time of revolutions and change in the 19th century!
