Les Tisserands Cooperative

As far back as one can remember, the inhabitants of Valgrisenche have dedicated themselves to typical trades of the valley: the “drap” weaving, a rustic material obtained from spun wool and worked on antique “métiers” (looms) made of maple wood. Initially the “drap” only had a few kinds of colour, while nowadays it has a discreet variety of shades and patterns, mostly geometric. The material is highly sought after in the furniture industry thanks to its appreciable robustness and durability and the particular heat that every handmade article gives off.

Open during the summer.

In other periods, opening on request.

For the timetable, please contact directly the Cooperative at the phone number reported in the “Contact” area.

The weaving workshop is accessible to people with disabilities; the museum on the first floor is not.
