Esha
A recent visit to India included an afternoon spent sitting cross-legged over tea with one of the country’s master weavers, who shyly – yet proudly – shared with us a prized possession: an antique rug crafted by the renowned weavers of South Asia’s Baluch tribe. From that afternoon, our Esha interpretation was born. Featuring the geometric patterns and rich colors for which Baluch rugs are celebrated, Esha is both durable and forgiving, making it especially well-suited for commercial applications. Historical character and lasting functionality? We say yes!
Crossing
Orderly, yet varied. Parallel, yet perpendicular. Like the proverbial fork in the road, Tuareg-inspired Crossing presents an exhilarating choice: to view pattern as vertical—or horizontal. And like all versatile options, it layers even the most current of spaces with design rooted in history—easily traversing centuries, oceans, and contexts.
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.
Plie
Think of it as pleated textile art. Rippled. Water-like. With a rhythmic pattern that echoes the tides, dancing as a ballerina does, dipping and rising again and again.
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.

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.
Shibori
Suggestive of – indeed, informed by – 8th century Japanese fabric dyeing techniques, Shibori summons memories of ages-old manipulations, and marriages, between fiber and dye. Oxidized to evoke eternities; rendered wholly new by imagination.
Tabi
Along the Silk Road, canopies of royal Narvan trees. Branched and twigged, they stand tall. Tangled. And magnificent. A celebration of Persia’s arboreal bounty, they inspired Tabi’s tree-like design – an organically harmonious balance between border and field.
