Damask
This high quality knotted rug, with its silky Damask effect, is the end result of countless steps in the production process. The brilliance of the expertly hand-carved decoration emerges with a three-dimensional effect from the base, creating an elegant contrast between opacity and luminosity that brings out the motifs, now classic, now abstract. It is available in various designs sometimes in different colors, other times as one-of-a-kind unique pieces, all great interpreters of the highest quality craftsmanship.
Hand Knotted
Ancient workmanship that is passed down from generation to generation. Before starting the knotting an artist draws and colors the motif in 1:1 scale on graph paper. Each square represents a knot. Sitting in front of a vertical frame, the weavers will execute tens of thousands of knots: the higher the number of knots, the higher the quality of the rug and the precision of the design. After the knotting is completed, the carpet will be washed several times to remove the excess fiber and make it shinier and softer; it will then be dried in sunlight. The time required to complete these operations, and consequently the overall production time, may be affected by unfavourable climatic factors, typical of monsoon areas. The production of a knotted rug, from the carding to its final phase, involves about twenty people, each with their own specialization: this ensures the creation of a high quality product that will last over time.
