About Toile de Jouy

‘Toile de Juoy’ literally translated from French as cloth from Jouy-en-Josas – a small town to the south-west of Paris where it was first produced in the mid 17th century – has been a popular design through the centuries. The various designs over time have always featured vignettes of figures, landscapes or flowers. (Information from http://www.toiledejouy.co.uk)
