Brass Door
Feet pounding pavement, horns blaring, crowds rushing, pulsing, surging forward. And everywhere, inspiration, as a glimpse of brass – scuffed, mottled, aged with patina – spied, day after day, sweeping across concrete in the urban jungle, informs this deeply saturated rug in all its glorious color.
Passage
A brick-lined alley. A mosaic of crumbled asphalt. A windowless stretch, inviting the crossing of a threshold. Entry points all, from a place of compression to expansion, and finally, illumination. Where a profusion of richly saturated color, rendered in silk, pirouettes across a field of wool. Passage, indeed.
Fiume
Like rivulets coursing downstream – at first, meandering and indistinct; later, nearly uniformly assembling at the lapping river’s edge – Fiume captures dichotomies abundantly displayed in nature. Orderly without the constraints of perfected repetition, it is at once peaceful, dramatic, and of course, original.
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!
Carreau PA
Classic Moorish tiles. Crumbling Spanish architecture. An exotic kaleidoscope of complex embroidery techniques. Such are Carreau’s exceptionally striking influences – made all the more impressive with indoor-outdoor versatility.
Merrin
Distinguished by a quartet of textures – solid, striped, diamond patterned and flat woven – Merrin displays an organic simplicity of design. It interests, in the most subtle of ways. It excites – approachably. Above all, it beautifies – ever so quietly.
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.
Colline
Like undulating hills, Colline’s transitional diamond design ebbs and flows, rises and falls, grounds and enchants with cut pile and loops.
