The Soul of the Piece
Red, cream and navy: the classic triad of Anatolian weaving. Nothing here is new, and that is the point. It is a small, steady piece of a very long tradition.
Material Reverence
What it is made of
A rug is only as noble as its fibre. We treat our materials the way a tailoring house treats cashmere: sourced with care, handled by hand, never hurried.
