PRODUCTION WITH RESTORED LATE 1800s LOOMS
We don't just sell the product itself, but the entire production process behind it.
In fact, we are one of the very few textile companies in the world that still produces fabrics using shuttle looms operated by Jacquard machines and punched cards.
The extremely low speed that gently touches the fiber and the cam system that closes both sides of the fabric allow our ancient workshop to recreate fabrics that carry the scent of quality, history, and tradition.
Tradition and Culture
Our daily commitment goes not only into crafting high-quality fabrics, but also into weaving into the warp and weft the spirit of history, tradition, and culture that guides each of our company's choices.
With this purpose, Tessitura Giaquinto has developed numerous collaborations in the social and cultural fields at the local, national, and international levels.
We present two of the most significant projects we've been involved in: click on the two images and enjoy the journey...
