Details

The Alga collection by Nani Marquina is an invitation to the senses, inspired by the fields of the sea. A rug that stands out for its organic shape, in motion, hand-knotted on a hand-woven dhurrie. But the complexity of the design goes beyond its form: the main challenge was to visually achieve a dynamic rug with such long fibers.

It is available in four sizes and three colors: Off White, Ochre and Grey.

Fibers

55% Afghan wool

Afghan wool comes from sheep grazing high in the mountains of Afghanistan. Naturally wavy, it is a very resistant material with a rough touch. Due to the curl of the wool and the irregularity in the yarn, when weaving it, it achieves an aged and unique appearance.

45% New Zealand wool

Typically, New Zealand wool is known to be the whitest, cleanest, purest and most natural in the world. Its softness is due in part to the altitude and the vegetation available to the herds. It is guaranteed to be cruelty-free.

Technique

Hand loomed Kilim

Manual weaving on a vertical or horizontal loom that plays with the intersection between weft and warp. Thin and light rugs that usually feature geometric patterns, as well as firm, resistant and without knots, which makes dhurries clean and easy to maintain rugs.

Hand knotted
