Contemporary rug SALTA

plainwoolcotton

These felt carpets are made with an handloom technique by the plaiting of one or more strips and threads. It is a kind of flat weave on a cotton base, resulting in a very firm and compact structure. This technique is inspired by traditional methods of weaving vegetable fibres which have always been used to produce baskets, curtains and other traditional objects. Both the weft and the warp – clearly visible in the finished product – have been magnified by using strips of felt woven. The outcome is an absolutely contemporary carpet, made of two dimensional patterns given by the thickness of the felt strips, the plaiting technique and the colour combinations. Handwoven rug in wool felt. Salta means research and design of surfaces, careful manual manufacture and reinterpretation of traditional weaving techniques. The felt is a noble material, compact and extremely durable, that adapts perfectly to different interpretations of language and textile know-how.
