Beautiful, large polychrome wool tapestry from the Manufacture "Braquenié et Cie" in Aubusson depicting eel fishermen.

The Braquenié tapestry factory is a French manufacturer based in Aubusson, in the Creuse region of France. It was listed as a historic monument on February 12, 2013.
In 1842, the factory was founded by the Demy-Doineau family, a Parisian textile sales house that had existed since the late 18th century, and Tournai-born industrialist Alexandre Braquenié (Demy-Doineau et Braquenié, Manufacture royale de tapis et de tapisseries).
Henri-Charles Braquenié took over the business with his brother Henri-Charles Braquenié in 1858. The Aubusson factory was built between 1860 and 1862. The Braquenié brothers soon had the most exclusive clientele in Paris. They received official commissions under Napoleon III, and also became suppliers to the Kingdom of Belgium and the German Empire.
After the Second World War, Braquenié was the only firm able to supply the Monuments Historiques with the fabrics and tapestries needed to refurbish French châteaux.
Since 1991, the company has been owned by Pierre Frey.
