velvet rug

Velvet's smooth surface anticipates quiet steps, calm expressions and moments of peace. The velvet rugs comprising this collection stand out for their sensitive touch that caresses the sight. Simple pieces that attract relaxation, that urge you to walk barefoot over them, that regale you with tenderness. In two sizes and four colors - ivory, grey, red or pistachio - its presence represents an ode to touch above any other sense, adapting itself to any room.

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.

During the manual weaving process by handloom, the thread is fastened to the warp, wrapping it around a spindle that determines the height of the rug's strands. This technique permits a wide range of finishes, from simple, delicate short-strand shag or loop rugs to more elaborate textures with various materials.
