Abstract: The disclosure describes a loom for high warp tapestry which is made of a frame mounted on a base and wherein the frame is adapted to receive a weft in downwardly displaceable fashion along its length. The frame is made of two substantially parallel upright vertical members, an upper guide bar and a lower guide bar. Both guide bars should enable the warp to slide over and above them respectively. Both ends of the warp are mounted at the rear of the frame in transverse members which can be adjusted by drawing them closer together thereby producing predetermined and uniform tension in the warp. This loom is especially adapted to control the tension of the warp especially in the case where the thickness of the high warp tapestry is not uniform.
