Tinian

Like the Mother Continent’s Queen Tinian—visionary leader of the African Tuareg tribe—our own Tinian is at once adventurous and calculating. A study in regulation thanks to repetitive geometric patterning, Tinian also proffers interpretive excitement resulting from decorative interruptions of that very repetition.

Maquette

If cozy could be rendered in an artist’s sketch, it would look like Maquette. Linear, but loose. Irregularly patterned for visual ease and open-ended furniture placement. Plush. Deep, in feel and in fact, thanks to bevel-edged pile atop its exposed foundation. A reminder that warmth is a sense and not just a sensation.

Walker

A mélange of wool and silk and dual colors – one for pile and one for loop – are meticulously hand-carved to birth lights and darks that are so much more than the sum of their twin hues. Add to the mix a trio of sheared pile heights, ribbed loops, and consistency of repeat for unparalleled distinction that’s at once subtle and rich.

Merletto

Think lace, but in leather form. Woven, waving, and wonderful. An intoxicating example craftsmanship, expressing artistry and imagination in dual renditions; leather lace, hand-stitched and undulating—and leather lace, hand-woven and level. An enticingly irregular blending of high and low, unified by linen.

Albers

An homage, squared—to European artist Josepf Albers and, to his famed “Squares” series. The embodiment of Mid-Century, Bauhaus-inspired design, our Tuareg-style Albers pattern is linear. Geometric. Simplified. And yet, reflective exploration reveals Albers to be more highly nuanced than perhaps initially understood. An ombre-shaded expression of overlapping, multi-hued linen and leather cord—and your own discerning taste.

Michi

“Flaneurs” are those who wander without purpose or destination through the cobblestone streets of Paris solely to take pleasure in the sights and sounds of the City of Light. We count ourselves lucky, from time to time, to be among them – as we were recently, when we couldn’t help but notice an abundance of clothing reminiscent of Coco Chanel’s famed boucle fabrics. Their memory inspired Michi – as classic as Chanel herself.

Allard

Tonal ribs. Subtly striped and vaguely linear. Beckons barefoot toes, crawling babies, and anyone seeking extreme versatility to ground a room. At least, that’s what we imagined when we imagined it!

Sen

Intricate in design yet fuss-free in approach, Sen personifies juxtaposition. Consider its crisply elongated vertical orientation – and the geometry of its alternating horizontal stripes. Or its ages-old Persian pedigree – and its simultaneous suitability to contemporary interiors. The result? An interplay of aesthetic energy and movement.

Keelan

SHIIR Rugs; Lyric Collection: Keelan, Sterling

Our founder’s love of antique carpets inspired Keelan’s Tibetan rug-like, spun silk, low pile simplicity. Velvety in the extreme, its touch recalls aged textiles, bygone fineries, and a luxurious moment in time – but in the most modern and graphic of ways. Marked by slender hand-carving to subtly define color-blocked transitions in hue – without repeat or restriction, for the utmost in flexibility.

Trace

A stripe is a stripe is a stripe – or, so much more, when graduated throughout a striated field of wool, and celebrated in silk atop. Suddenly, what we thought we knew becomes a marvel – of visual interest and immense versatility.
