Origin

This hand-knotted designer rug is a real eye-catcher and lifts any modern interior. Despite its contemporary design, it makes every room feel more homely and inviting.

 

Pattern

The clear, abstract design of this contemporary rug speaks especially to people who love simple, modern interiors and architecture. The design idea for this rug comes from Europe. Free from the rules of traditional rug patterns, it was developed for Western art and interior styles. That is not an entirely new development, though. The roots of European rug design go back to Art Deco rugs, which were made to Western specifications between the late twenties and the fifties.

The colours of this Mood form a gradient and flow into one another.

The pattern, inspired by classical Oriental ornament, creates the impression that this hand-knotted rug already has a long history behind it. The design looks washed out or faded, which makes it appear almost abstract. In reality this Mood is of course new and part of the latest generation of contemporary rug designs. It builds a bridge between modern design and interiors and classical Oriental motifs. The pattern is restrained and yet present.

The background of this Mood is beige-yellow. The overall impression is also dominated by dusky pink and beige.

 

Material

The pile of this Mood is made of hard-wearing viscose. The colloquial term "artificial silk" is not permitted under the German Textile Labelling Act (TKG). Viscose – also called acetate silk or rayon – is obtained in principle from the natural product cellulose, and thus from the raw material wood. In India, however, the cellulose pulp is also obtained from bamboo. In an elaborate process, the pulpy cellulose is drawn into a continuous textile yarn. This is why viscose is also referred to as continuous filament yarn. Because of the silky sheen of the yarn, viscose made from bamboo is also known as "Bamboo Silk". The weft and warp threads of this Mood are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation.
