Cru
Name is French for “vintage” and honors its vintage feel. Design is a new high-low texture in a stripe on stripe pattern. Shaggy, unclipped Mongolian wool combines with exposed wool foundation. Versatile design feels vintage and modern at the same time.
Rand
This wool pile on a flat woven wool ground – similar to exposed foundation – garners admiration courtesy of its abstract, irregular striping comprised of multi-colored yarns. Relaxed. Inspired.
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.
Kett
A loopy background, a chain-stitched plaid. Flatwoven texture, modern technique. Wool, silk, and all wow.
Isla Custom
Inspired by the steeply rugged topography of the Kazak mountains, Isla’s angled design aspects in both border and field – including twin medallions – are at once typical and revolutionary, thanks to fresh new colorway choices.
Indo Tess
Like Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro of light and dark, or a Shakespearean sonnet, Indo Tess is a celebration of contrast, deepening the observer’s appreciation of its form. A coarse, flat woven field in wool, with every imperfection of the hand-weaver’s art exposed, offset by the flickering play of light across dense and luxurious silk – such is the beauty of Indo Tess.
Cirque
Cirque – perhaps the interior design world’s version of gestalt. A symbolic pattern of circular elements, themselves created of circular motifs. So unified as a whole that it cannot be distilled into a simple summation of parts. An all-around winning combination of pattern, mood, and meaning.
Briar
Briar evokes the faded, gentle effects of age. Yet its patina is gained by means both contemporary and unique. Worn not by generations of footsteps, but by the introduction of iron to weather its wool fibers, Briar compresses a century of wear into a mere days-long process. Nostalgic. Nuanced. And altogether notable.
Landis
Our appreciation for Tibetan rugs always inspires us. Still, we wondered how – and whether – we could conjure a rug design that would display many of the prized characteristics of Tibetan rugs, in a cleaner, more contemporary manner. The answer is a resounding yes, as witnessed in the uncluttered, abrash- and heather-free styling of Landis.
Holborn
Its leather patches whip-stitched atop a field of silk, Holborn’s geometry is augmented by the play between negative and positive spaces – here, the opaque density of elongated leather hexagons; there, the textural counterpoint of flatwoven silk. All, accentuated by heavily corded hand-stitching.
