Origin

This rug is one of the few machine-made rugs in our collection. Knotting and weaving rugs is an elaborate, time-consuming process. Making rugs by hand calls for a great deal of skill, time and care. Only in the 19th century, in the wake of the industrial revolution, did rug making gradually become mechanised. Wool could now be spun with motorised machines, and automated weaving and knotting looms made it possible to produce rugs quickly and cheaply.

Today's automated rug knotting and weaving looms work with a multitude of yarns that are unwound from spools and fed in. The desired pattern is set digitally beforehand. In this way rugs can be made by machine in next to no time. By hand, the work can take weeks, months or even years – depending on material, fineness and size. This naturally has a considerable effect on the price.

Material

The pile of this rug is hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by shearing sheep gently. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: thanks to the natural oil content of the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is therefore naturally protected against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, helps regulate the indoor climate and dampens sound.

The weft threads of this Maschiny are made of acrylic. Cotton was used for the warp threads.

Condition

You are not the first to take a liking to this Maschiny. It has had owners before you who valued and used it. It was knotted around 46. It has been cleaned thoroughly and is in good but unrestored condition. The fringes could do with a repair. We have not restored this Maschiny because we feel it has a special presence just as it is. If you would like us to, we will of course restore the rug for you. Either way, this Maschiny will give you pleasure for decades to come.
