Après une formation en biologie et médecine, Ivan da Silva Bruhns (1881-1980) se tourne vers la peinture. Influencé par les expositions d'art marocain des années 1917 et 1919, il s'intéresse à l'art du tapis et s'applique à le renouveler, inspiré par le style géométrique et les couleurs sobres des tapis berbères. Ses tapis sont tissés dans sa propre manufacture à Savigny-sur-Orge, ainsi que dans des centres aussi réputés que les manufactures d'Aubusson et La Savonnerie.
Il collabore avec les principaux décorateurs de l'époque et dessine des cartons de tapis pour des ambassades, des palais nationaux, ou encore des grands paquebots tels Le Normandie, L'Atlantique, L'Ile-de-France, La Marseillaise
