Madeira Embroidery: The Value of Authentic Art at Bordal
In fact, Madeira Embroidery represents much more than a simple textile ornament. Furthermore, this handmade work is a living symbol of the culture of Madeira Island. In this sense, at Bordal, we preserve this tradition since 1962. Therefore, we guarantee that every piece carries the seal of authenticity. In addition, this care defines the best Portuguese luxury craftsmanship.
Specifically, the centuries-old manufacturing process makes Madeira Embroidery unique in the world. First, our specialists create the meticulous design on tracing paper. Subsequently, we perform the perforation and stamping onto noble fabrics. Afterwards, the skilled hands of the embroiderers bring the patterns to life. Moreover, they use traditional stitches like the “garante” or “caseado”. Consequently, every single stitch tells a story of dedication.
On the other hand, at our factory in Funchal, we check every detail with rigor. To that end, our team executes the careful cutting and professional ironing. As a result, we treat each piece as a true work of art. Finally, the product reaches the customer with the highest quality.
Currently, the global market presents many imitations. For this reason, knowing the origin is crucial for collectors of fine linens. Accordingly, all our pieces include the official seal from IVBAM. Indeed, this holographic seal ensures that you purchase a genuine product. At the same time, by choosing Bordal, you support the continuity of this secular art. In summary, you take home a piece of the soul and heritage of Madeira Island.
