Materials
Close-up of the wool surface

Wool. Naturally resilient, soil-resistant and warm underfoot.

Vacuum without a beater bar; blot spills immediately.

Craft

Hand Knotted. Each knot tied individually around the warp threads, then clipped and washed. The most time-intensive and durable construction.

Asymmetric knot on cotton warp.

Hand-knotted rugs are made knot by knot on an upright loom, then washed, clipped and finished by hand. Slight variations in tone (abrash) and in dimensions of up to 2–3% are natural signatures of this process.

Handmade variation — a shift in tone, a slightly irregular edge — is the character of the process, not a defect.

Care

Vacuum without a beater bar; blot spills immediately. Rotate every six to twelve months to even out wear and light exposure. Professional cleaning every two to three years. Use a rug pad to keep the piece flat and in place.

    Lovely, a little shedding

    Some shedding in the first weeks as expected, now settled. Very happy overall.

  • Lucas H. ·

    Nice but darker than expected

    Good quality, though the tone is deeper than it looked on my screen. Kept it.

  • Aarav S. ·

    Calm and precise

    Exactly the quiet texture we wanted for the study.

    Even better in the room

    The colours are softer and richer than on screen. It anchors the whole living room.

A fact from the Rug Library

Explore the library
In hand-knotting, yarns of wool, silk or cotton are tied around pairs of vertical warps, each row is secured with weft, and the rows are compacted with a comb beater.
