Pinton
The first references to the name Pinton can be found in the Aubusson weaver censuses of the early XVIth century. However, the history of the Pinton family can only be traced back to the end of the XVIIIth century, one hundred years after Colbert granted the title of Royal Manufactory to Aubusson tapestry makers.
In 2002, Lucas Pinton was just 23 years old when his father, François, suggested that he took the head of the family manufactory, close to bankruptcy at that time. He then left Paris, where he was completing his economics studies in the university of Assas to dedicate himself to the rebirth of Maison Pinton.
