Last updated date : 05/04/2024
Discover a family workshop and its silk printing and colouring techniques: colouring of silk squares, tradition of the silk houses of Lyon, manufacture & sale of articles (squares, scarves, stoles, ties ...).
Created in 1890, this family business is managed by Gérard Genet, 4th generation of silk printers. He perpetuates the family tradition with the wish to keep this know-how alive.
This wellknown private production site is open to the public in order to pass on this heritage. It welcomes visitors from all over the world, individuals or groups, who discover traditional dyeing techniques with fabric decorators and printers. An unforgettable experience!
Specialized in art reproduction, the Atelier de Soierie prints squares and scarves for museums and art foundations all over the world.
With more than 3000 frames, 8000 printing blocks, l'Atelier de Soierie produces two collections per year of a wide variety of patterns & colors, created by artists or the team. The techniques used allow the creation of limited series and unique pieces, which can be discovered in the boutique on the second floor: a wide choice of items (stoles, scarves, squares, ties...), printed or hand-painted at the Atelier. Their realization requires a lot of know-how, involving 7 companies of the region! They deserve the Made in France label!
