PARSUA offers a new interpretation of the Persian carpet. At Parsua, exit all that is chemical and polluting. We opt for a spinning and a knotting carried out by hand, natural dyes, cotton and the renewable line (the latter coming from the valley of Shiraz) and weavings patinated in water and in the sun. The slow production is carried out by rural families, who spin and weave as in the 17th and 18th centuries. The result: bespoke orders, whose ancient Ottoman motifs have been reinterpreted in today's clean graphics. Creators, designers and external artists also contribute to bringing the brand into modernity.
The history of the carpet in France begins with the foundation by Henri IV, of the "Persian and Levant style" carpet factory established in the galleries of the Louvre, benefiting in particular from the know-how of Pierre Dupont, then of his apprentice Simon Lourdet .
Louis XIII developed the manufacture by setting up workshops on the banks of the Seine at the foot of the hill of Chaillot, in the buildings of a former soap factory - hence the name Savonnerie, which since designates the carpets made according to the lockstitch technique, called "from Turkey". -
