On 05/11/2023
Was hat der unscheinbare Spinnfaden eines asiatischen Schmetterlings mit dem Aufschwung und Niedergang eines ganzen Wirtschaftszweigs im Baselbiet zu tun? Die Ausstellung zeigt das Leben rund um den Webstuhl, die Entstehung der Bänder sowie die Bedeutung des Seidenbands als Luxus- und Exportartikel. Verschiedenste Bandbeispiele, in Heim- und Fabrikarbeit gewoben, zeigen die Schönheit des modischen Seidenbands. Eine besondere Attraktion bilden zwei funktionierende Webstühle: ein lochkartengesteuerter Schiffchenwebstuhl (um 1900) und ein Nadelwebstuhl (um 1970). Zudem ist ein Schlagstuhl von 1764 zu sehen. Ohne Voranmeldung, im Museumseintritt inbegriffen
