The Savonnerie factory inherited its name from the soap-making factory it took over at the behest of Louis XIII. From 1660 until 1743, Savonnerie was a manufacturer royale, carrying out commissions for French Savonnerie rugs specifically designed for the Royal Palaces. In the 1770s, the tapestry looms at Aubusson in the Creuze Valley near Limoges was converted to produce flat-woven rugs and carpets under royal warrant.
