Etymology

The term buckram derives from the Middle English 'bocram', which indicates a type of fabric originally made from coarse cotton, linen, or animal hair, often treated to become stiff and resilient. It has roots traceable to the Old French 'bocram' and possibly from an Arabic source. Historically used for bookbinding in the medieval period, buckram gradually evolved to encompass a variety of uses, including fashion and upholstery. Its unique characteristics made it an ideal choice for the creation of items that required both structure and durability. Over time, the adoption of buckramed materials expanded into various crafts, emphasizing the intersection of functionality and aesthetic in the arts and textiles, leading to its relevance even in contemporary usage.
