Damask

Description

From the great trading center of Damascus, via the Silk Road, ancient weaving techniques and motifs made their way to the famous textile houses of Venice. Master weavers used draw looms to create richly woven fabrics that became known as damasks. For centuries, these luxurious silks lavished the wardrobes and halls of mansions and palaces across Europe.

In Damask, players play the roles of these master weavers, trying to make the most money, while also gaining the favor of the Weavers’ Guild.
