Tapis
This rug in light grey and light brown brings together traditional craftsmanship and timeless elegance. A knot density of approx. 120,000 knots per m² makes the painstaking workmanship visible – right down to the finely worked details. At 90 × 61 cm, it is perfectly at home as a small accent rug. It shows just as well as a seat rug or a wall hanging. This one-of-a-kind piece brings a character of its own into the room and keeps its value far beyond short-lived trends.

Origin
Classic floral ornament paired with contemporary aesthetics – for this hand-knotted Tapis we drew our inspiration from the flowering patterns of French tapestry rugs.We reworked the traditional ornaments, pared them back and, above all, rearranged the colouring completely. The result is a fusion of traditional rug design and modern European aesthetics. With our Tapis design we set out to meet the trends of European interiors, playing freely with the conventions of traditional rug knotting.
Material
The pile of this Tapis is made of hard-wearing viscose. The colloquial term "artificial silk" is not permitted under the German Textile Labelling Act (TKG). Viscose (also spelled viscose, and known as acetate silk or rayon) is generally obtained from cellulose, a natural product, and therefore 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 one continuous textile yarn. This is why viscose is also referred to as continuous filament yarn. Because of the silky sheen of the yarn, viscose obtained from bamboo is also called "bamboo silk".The weft and warp threads of this Tapis are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation.
A note on the photos
Child labour? No thanks.
The rug trade against child labour: Children belong in school, not at a knotting or weaving loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour. We place particular importance on good working conditions and tolerate no child labour at our producers.
We are proud to be a member of the Care & Fair campaign against child labour.
The industry-wide campaign CARE & FAIR - the rug trade against child labour was founded in 1994. The initiative has made it its mission to fight the excesses of illegal child labour in the knotting countries and, at the same time, to improve the overall situation of rug knotters and their families in the knotting regions of India, Nepal and Pakistan.
Our goals:
- Ending illegal child labour in India and Pakistan.
- Creating better living conditions for knotters' families.
- Socially responsible production. We only accept goods that have been made under fair conditions. Working with our producers as partners, we want to make clear to them that taking on social responsibility benefits everyone.
Together with Care & Fair we currently support 10 schools, 6 adult education centres and 3 day clinics in India and Pakistan.
