Tisca Savonnerie rugs are very accurate reproductions of absolutely original french designs produced from the 17th through 19th century in the factories of Savonnerie, which gave the name to these cut-pile and hand-knotted rugs. Originally they were produced for the french royal family, but later on, important artists and architects cooperated with this factory and the production could be increased to satisfy the demand of the noble and new bourgeois families. In the past few years Savonnerie rugs are again very much appreciated, and they are successfully used in classic and contemporary home.
