TISSAGE ART DE LYS DESIGNER - WEAVER SINCE 1890 For over 125 years, the Tissage Art de Lys Company has created, woven and manufactured collections of upmarket, jacquard patterns for decorating

2 TISSAGE ART DE LYS DESIGNER - WEAVER SINCE 1890 For over 125 years, the Tissage Art de Lys Company has created, woven and manufactured collections of upmarket, jacquard patterns for decorating present day and future interiors. The workshops are located at Lys-Lez-Lannoy, in the heart of the historical textile area in northern France. Tissage Art de Lys is the guarantee of exceptional expertise inherited from the Middle Ages and unanimously acclaimed in France and abroad. In particular, this expertise has enabled Tissage Art de Lys to be certified as an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company). FROM TAPESTRY TO TEXTILE ACCESSORIES Created in 1890 by Jean Deffrennes-Canet and Edouard Catrice, the company started life as a workshop specialising in the manufacture of tapestries, rugs, velvet rugs and prayer mats. In 1983, it became Tissage Art de Lys, and began concentrating on decorative tapestries. Today, the Tissage Art de Lys Company, headed since 2007 by Nicolas Bonte, offers upmarket, decorative textile accessories (cushions, draught excluders, cosmetic bags, bell-pulls, bed and table runners, etc.), blending tradition and modernity. UNIQUE EXPERTISE In the Tissage Art de Lys workshops, expertise is passed on from generation to generation. Designers, weavers and seamstress make up a close-knit chain and together demonstrate their arts and crafts, where patience, discipline and excellence are the key words. The expertise to be found at Tissage Art de Lys is based on the traditional and complex jacquard weaving technique, which consists in interweaving two types of thread: warp and weft threads. This extremely precise technique enables the interweaving of nearly 105 threads per square centimetre and thus achieving an incomparable level of finesse and a multitude of colours, which are traditionally the hallmarks of the Tissage Art de Lys products. The Tissage Art de Lys Company was awarded the EPV label (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant). The EPV label is allocated by the Ministry for Economy, Industry and Employment, and is the single State award associated with recognising exceptional expertise.
