extended rug

This rug possesses graphic iconography that is characteristic of its designer, whose works stand out for being very conceptual. In this case, tradition and modernity, classicism and contemporaneity are cut and pasted to make a rational whole, fusing together without blending. Each monochrome area represents the amount of color that is inside the frame of a Persian rug, decentralized. Guixé's love of contrast is embodied in this work, whose point of departure - a traditional Persian tapestry - is extended to unexpected limits.

Wool from New Zealand sheep is a natural, sustainable and biodegradable fiber. This beautiful wool is hypoallergenic, it is easy to care for, ages well and holds its color. It also minimized noise levels, while it creates a relaxing and comfortable environment.

Hand tufting is a manual weaving process that uses a pistol-shaped contraption. The rug's design is made over a taut cotton fabric and weaved with a tufting gun, which pushes and cuts sections of wool thread that are fastened to the base with a layer of latex.
