The Courtship
A bow, a blush, a gathered room
Pale celadon silk on the suitor's coat, coral on the lady's skirts. The weaver has graded each fold of fabric through dozens of tones, so the scene reads as painted from across the room and as woven from up close.

A bow, a hesitation, a room holding its breath. The weaver graded each fold of fabric through dozens of tones so that the moment reads as painted from afar and as knotted up close.
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.
