缂织壁毯,又称缂织挂毯,是指一种以缂织工艺纺织而成、挂在墙壁廊柱上的一种装饰用的艺术品。早期用羊毛、棉线等纺织,高档壁毯也有用丝绸、金线、银线等纺织,现在多用合成纤维,由织布机制作。缂织壁毯最初的功能是悬挂于房屋内部,以起到挡风御寒的作用。

《独角兽的狩猎》系列中的挂毯之一:《发现独角兽》,约1495-1505年制作,目前收藏于大都会艺术博物馆

缂织壁毯较为脆弱且难以制作,因此大多数历史作品都都将艺术品该垂直挂在墙上(或有时挂在帐篷里),或水平挂在桌子或床等家具上。此外,缂织壁毯需要与刺绣等不同技术区分开来,尽管带有图像的大片刺绣有时被粗略地称为“挂毯”, 从中世纪开始,欧洲缂织壁毯其编织面积相当巨大大,它们通常成套制作,这样整个房间都可以挂起来。

在中世纪晚期的欧洲,挂毯是最宏伟、最昂贵的二维图像媒介,尽管在当时的时代,绘画的重要性迅速上升,但至少在16世纪末之前,'缂织壁毯在许多文艺复兴时期的赞助人眼中一直保持著高尚的地位,在法国大革命拿破仑战争之前 ,欧洲继续发展缂织壁毯,并反映艺术风格的更广泛变化,在19世纪之后,缂织壁毯则较小的规模逐渐复兴。
