Harris Weaving Looms

The HARRIS LOOMS division of Emmerich (Berlon) Ltd makes handweaving equipment in Kent where Dr. Harris first produced his famous table loom in 1939. Supplied worldwide to craft weavers, schools, colleges and to textile designers for sample making.

The principles of his design in hardwood with an easy action shedding mechanism are continued to this day. In 1980 the option of electronic pattern control was added and the loom was linked to the computer liberating the textile designer from many repetitive tasks.
