This region, the geographic center of the Italian Renaissance, birthplace of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Rafael and Piero Della Francesca, is imbued with a sensitivity to beauty and commitment to the highest quality craftsmanship of all kinds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eIn 1796, at the Castle of Anghiari, a textile factory specialized in weaving cloth for French Army troops which were settled along the Tiber River. Over time, the focus shifted from meeting the needs of the military to meeting those of the local people until, in 1808, it had transformed itself from serving soldiers to serving neighbours. The Busattis have lived in this region since 1790 and it was their talent and commitment to excellence that has kept this same textile factory in operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e From their earliest origin as successful merchants, the Busatti family gradually shifted their business interests from operating an emporium that traded in general goods, to becoming expert tailors and, finally, in the mid-1800s, to specializing in home linens. It was Giuseppe Busatti, great-great-grandfather of the present owners, who created a network of home weavers in the Tiber Valley. He built hundreds of handlooms, bought the finest linens and cottons, and insisted on exacting craftsmanship for all products that bear the Busatti name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Today, his family carries on the tradition begun by Giuseppe. The Busatti workshop is not simply a factory, but it is more correctly thought of a place where “artigiani” – artisans – exercise their craft with pride, skill and passion that comes from centuries of experience. Linen and cotton are dyed on the thread and not on the reel or on the woven fabric, using only Busatti’s colours. Some of the colour sources are “guado”, “henna”, onions, sage and carrots. Ancient carding machines work the wool of the Apennines. Shuttle looms insert weft-threads, giving fabrics that special softness that is so often lost today. Special attention is always paid to finishing the pieces and embroidery is still hand guided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In the past fifteen years the company has grown to meet increasing demand, first in Italy , then in Europe and, now in the United States and all over the world.
