"We believe that at its origin, the act of weaving textiles is a gesture of negotiating andconnecting to Nature. Moreover, the protection and transmission of our savoir-faire in terms of textile manufacturing is a key element to our mission and passion, and we feel that we have very much to learn from the Indian culture in this domain and we are very honoured for the opportunity to be present in India," said Adrien de Raphelis, Head of Export, Fremaux Delorme.
The French brand recognizes the wealth of India's cultural heritage, with regards to textiles, and what an important role textile have played in the development of humanity.
