Cultural Heritage : Jules Flipo carpets

Jules Flipo is a handcraft company using a typically French technique. An unrivaled design precision is possible thanks to the tightening of weaving and the fineness of the wool . What's more, by dying the wool on its site, Jules Flipo obtains a very specific color intensity.
This "Made in France" process is part of the factory identity. With an exceptional choice of designs - about 12,000 available, Jules Flipo carpets are incomparable in various capacities and of a spectacular visual effect.
Reedition of old patterns is available on demand (changes of patterns and colors as well upon request).
