Isla

SHIIR Rugs: Lineage Collection; Isla, Tribute

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.

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.

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.

Tellen

Sinuous repetition yields dramatic – yet eminently versatile – interest as a line of silk snakes across a field of oxidized wool. The result? An ordered presentation of curves at once geometric and organic.

Quill

A flight of geometric fancy harkening to the bird’s eye pattern takes wing in utterly original form distinguished by wrapped and dashed stitchery.

Etson

Imprinted not with pattern, but with texture. Texture borne of wool fibers, oxidized by iron to yield a patina-rich illusion of age. Authenticated by appearance; verified by touch, haunted by memory of carpets worn, appreciated, and admired through the centuries – yet refreshingly, unapologetically, new.

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.

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.

Radcliffe

A geometric pattern repeat evoking basketweave-like intricacy. Linear shading. Endless possibilities.

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.
