Overview
Design by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, 2011.
By nanimarquina.
Reinterpreting the traditional Persian rug, using the ancient kilim technique, the Bouroullec brothers continue their study of simplicity and elegance. Technically complex, the Losanges Rug requires great skill as it involves combining 13 colors through the geometrical rhombus shape, a great challenge for the craftsmen of Northern Pakistan.
As well as being crafted by hand, the Afghan wool is also spun by hand, which allows for some unique color tones to be highlighted, and making each rhombus different and each rug a unique item. The Losanges Rug is available in three sizes.
Notes:
This is a handmade craft product. Minor variations, in size and color, are inevitable.
