Master loom setters

Our Tapestry Department is made up of master loom setters who use thousand-year-old techniques, keeping centuries-old knowledge of traditional textile techniques.

When it comes to manufacturing rugs, tapestries and coats of arms the masters of the Royal Factory make decisions of an artistic nature that are fundamental for guaranteeing the impeccable quality of the products.

Learning these traditional crafts can take as long as 20 years Not only do weavers acquire extensive knowledge of the textile technique itself, but also of illustration, dyes and the history of textiles.
