There is no weavers name anywhere on this card. The design of the silk, together with printing and embossing on the card however is identical to the two other Coat Of Arms cards recorded on this site, and these are believed to be of GRANT manufacture.

Interesting though, the reverse of this card has printing applicable to a French card. Elsewhere on this Grant postcard catalogue are also recorded other cards with a French backing, so it is not that unusual:
