vintage rug

This one-of-a-kind piece in terracotta brings together traditional craftsmanship and timeless elegance. A knot density of approx. 120,000 knots per m² makes the painstaking work visible – right down to the finely worked details. At 245 × 153 cm it is perfectly at home as a living room rug. It shows to equally fine effect in an office. The harmonious colouring and the characteristic texture lend any room an exclusive, homely atmosphere. A rug of this quality is far more than a piece of furnishing – it is a piece of traditional textile art with individual character and lasting value.

Origin

Using an elaborate process, we give some of our old Oriental rugs a more modern look. We call these rugs vintage rugs. Vintage rugs are design objects in which traditional craftsmanship meets contemporary interior culture. The new dyeing lends the traditional patterns of Oriental rugs a timeless character. Rugs that are no longer in fashion because of their colouring are given a second life in a more modern guise. Using old rugs as raw material for new products is sustainable and easy on resources.

Material

The pile of this vintage rug was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: thanks to the natural oils in 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 and warp threads of this vintage rug are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation weave.

Condition

This vintage rug has a story to tell. It was knotted in around 1980. We have cleaned it thoroughly and restored it with care. Despite its age, it is therefore in very good condition.

A note on the photos

The colours of this rug change depending on which side you look at it from. It all depends on whether the light falls with the nap of the pile or against it. That is why we have photographed the rug from several angles.

Child labour? No thanks.

Child labour? No thanks. Children belong in school, not at a knotting frame or a loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour.

We attach particular importance to humane working conditions and tolerate no child labour at any of our producers. Thank you for helping us to ensure fair conditions.

That is why we support the initiative Care & Fair against child labour in the rug trade.
