This tablet-woven trim is a reconstruction of a sleeve trim that was attached to the burial robe of Abbess Berthild of Chelles, who died at 705 AD. Berthild was the first abbess of Chelles Abbey and a contemporary of the Frankish Merovingian queen Bathilde, who was buried in the same abbey in 680.
It is woven with fine plant-dyed wool attempting to imitate the colouring of the original border.#tabletweaving #brettchenweben #Merovingian #Merowinger #reenactment #Chelles #weben #weaving
