THE
JOURNEY

In 2010, the firm, diversified to create a contemporary take on traditional, hand-knotted rugs which took inspiration from abstract art and thus was born ‘Tissage’.

Tissage in French means ‘weaving”. It is our way of paying homage to the classical art of hand-knotted rug-making.

Our passion for the craft and quality is a result of the time we’ve spent perfecting all the little nuances.

Over the course of these forty years, we have come to be represented by high-end specialty boutiques and interior designers around the world.

According to the Creative Director, Nikhil Kapoor, Tissage views rug-making as a fearless expression of cutting-edge design aesthetic using an age old craft. Kapoor believes that only through handmade work, through its progressions and inevitable imperfections, can a rug, acquire personality, depth and eventually……a soul.
