vintage rug
This rug in light red and pink combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. With approx. 150,000 - 350,000 knots per m², the workmanship is correspondingly demanding, evident in the precise drawing of the pattern and the finely worked details. Its 514 × 91 cm make it a hallway runner. It also looks good in the kitchen in front of the worktop. This one-of-a-kind piece brings individual character to the room and holds its value far beyond short-lived trends.

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.
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.
