The Story Behind Toulemonde Bochart
Toulemonde Bochart is a Parisian rug house that works with a circle of French designers, architects and artists, with craftsmanship perpetuated since 1949. Each rug is drawn in Paris and then made by hand, so the design comes first and the craft carries it out with care. Every rug is certified by GoodWeave, an international certification founded by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Kailash Satyarthi. It guarantees that no child labor is used in the production chain and supports social and educational programs in the regions where the rugs are made.
