Serrano embroidery was made on a homemade pure linen canvas woven in taffeta, at least from the 11th to the 17th centuries. At the beginning of the 20th century, once the last linen looms had disappeared, industrial fabrics made with other fibres began to be used, or rolls of linen produced locally that had been stored in chests by the older embroiderers were put into service.
