loom-woven

Created on harness

Loom-woven describes fabric or textiles produced on a loom rather than by hand-knotting, machine-knitting, or other methods.

The term emphasizes traditional or artisanal production: a loom-woven rug, loom-woven cotton.

It often appears in marketing to suggest craftsmanship or authenticity.
