Difference between Brocade and Damask
What's the exact difference between Brocade and Damask. Anyone knows? Gugganij (talk) 19:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Brocade and Damask are typically used to mean the same thing. The method of making them is the same, so the fabrics are really the same, but the patterns are different. Brocade patterns typically use metallic treads and more contrast. Another difference is that Brocade is a usually single sided fabric (the pattern only looks good on one side) and Damask is reversible (pattern looks good on both sides).

- Additionally - Technically (and traditionally), the patterns in brocade use one or more supplemental wefts to create a pattern in multiple colors; damasks are usually produced with a single warp and and a single weft and the pattern is monochrome (or one color for warp and one for weft). That is what makes damasks look the same on both sides. Many brocades have a damask ground. - PKM (talk) 20:59, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Ancient Chinese brocade
The article on Chengdu says brocade was made there in the 3rd Century AD. If this is true, surely this article should start its timeframe with Antiquity, not the Middle Ages. 78.86.61.94 (talk) 17:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
