Serious about ribbon since 2004
Ribbon Bazaar is the online shop of Cottage Lace & Ribbon Co. in Neptune City, New Jersey. From wholesale satin to sheer organza, grosgrain and wired edge, we stock the ribbon that florists, crafters, event planners and gift wrappers go through by the spool.
Ribbon comes in silk, velvet, cotton, satin, jute, sheer, organza, polyester, nylon and grosgrain. It turns up in hair and on clothes, tied around packages, on wreaths and in window displays, and it has a long history of ornament and celebration.
The history of ribbons
Ribbons were first woven more than a thousand years ago in France. A ribbon loom can weave more than one web at once, which made the looms sophisticated and ribbon a relatively modern invention. Soon each nation in medieval Europe had its own ribbon-weaving center; Krefeld, Germany, specialized in black velvet ribbon. In 16th-century Leiden, weavers rioted over the ribbon looms and the looms were banned. It wasn't until improvements in 1745 that ribbon weaving became common.
The blue ribbon
The blue ribbon, or riband, named the fastest Atlantic crossing in the early 20th century, but it symbolized excellence long before. It started with the Cordon Bleu, a medieval order of knights whose seal hung from a blue ribbon, and it came to stand for a high standard in cooking, sports and other prestigious events.
Ribbon symbolism
Many ribbons carry meaning today: yellow ribbons support the armed forces, pink ribbons stand for breast cancer awareness, and red for AIDS awareness. The practice started during WWI, and new colors and stripes keep taking on new meaning.
