This one-of-a-kind piece in dark grey/anthracite combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance.

At 58 × 42 cm it is well suited as a small living room rug. The harmonious colouring and the characteristic texture give 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 a character of its own and lasting value.

Origin

The modern, light-toned rugs in our Zen collection are made from pure new wool. They are more than just a decorative element. They are a true masterpiece of the rug-knotting craft.

The finely knotted ridges create an enchanting pattern. The light, soft texture and the varying pile heights of the Zen collection calm the senses and create a pleasant atmosphere. Our Zen rugs are understated, meditative rugs with soul.

Material

The technique used to make the materials for the pile of this Zen is over 200 years old. The wool was dyed with natural colours and spun by hand. Dyeing with natural or plant-based colours is more complicated, more expensive and more time-consuming than dyeing with chemical ones. For a luminous red, for example, you need around one kilo of ground madder root as dye per kilo of wool. For a strong yellow that isn't too pale, it even takes two kilograms of weld per kilo of wool. Spinning the wool is labour-intensive and time-consuming too. And fewer and fewer people still master spinning wool by hand.

But the effort is worth it: dyeing with natural colours allows the high-quality wool to keep its natural oil content. Wool that has been dyed with natural colours and spun by hand creates fascinating, shimmering patterns. The charm of hand-spun wool, with its slight irregularities and natural shades, comes into its own as a contrast in modern interiors, but equally in rooms furnished in a more traditional or country style.

The weft and warp threads of this Zen are made of cotton. This versatile material is both tear-resistant and supple, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation.
