Decorated with or made of brocade, a rich fabric with a raised design woven into it.
From 'brocade' (a type of fabric), which came into English from Italian 'broccato' and Spanish 'brocado,' ultimately from a verb meaning 'to prick' or 'to raise' (referring to the raised patterns in the weave).
The word 'brocade' literally traces back to the idea of 'pricking' or raising threads—which is exactly what weavers do to create those beautiful 3D patterns! It's a perfect example of how technical craft words preserve the actual techniques in their etymology.
