MMaurer Vienna - Where craftsmanship, quality and style are at home.

Welcome to M.Maurer - the last posamentry in Vienna.

For over 160 years, we have been embellishing textiles with handmade tassels, braids, fringes, cords and uniform effects - made in Austria with the utmost precision, a sense of style and a deep understanding of tradition. What was once made for the Austro-Hungarian army in times of the monarchy, now adorns stages, uniforms, traditional costumes, lampshades and designer pieces all over the world.

Craftsmanship meets history - and your style

Whether delicate lace for curtains, pompous tiebacks for museums or detailed ribbons for festive occasions - our products are made by hand on historical machines. We combine traditional expertise with contemporary design and stand for long-lasting, sustainable quality from Austria.

Customised work for designers, institutions & individualists

Our customers range from renowned fashion designers such as Lena Hoschek, Theatre and film productions, to the national fire brigade, army and police. We also serve individual clients, offering customised advice and production for curtains, traditional costumes or fine decorative elements.
