Patterned Terra, rusty red with stripes

Place of origin

When designing this hand-knotted rug, simplicity and minimalism were particularly important to us. The result is a modern, abstract design that fits perfectly into modern interiors. Despite its cool, simple design, this rug makes every room more cozy and comfortable.

Patterns

The straight stripes of this Terra organize and structure the pattern.
br /> The repeating elements in the center field of this Terra rug have no specific center (so-called repeating pattern). The repeating pattern has a calming but not boring effect. Rugs with repeating patterns are also called patterned.

The surface of this Terra has a flecked effect. The color changes and light-dark shades of the pile yarn run across the length of the rug, making the colors shimmer and making the rug impervious to dirt. Because of these so-called color jumps Abrash the rug appears more lively. The flecking is the result of the wool of this Terra being hand-spun. During dyeing, the natural dyes are absorbed differently.

Some areas of the design have a higher pile than other parts of this rug. The patterns of modern rugs tend to be simpler and more abstract. The play with different pile heights is new and has replaced more elaborate and bold patterns. As a result of the two-dimensional highlighting of the pattern, the rug does not look boring at all. This accentuation is extraordinary and has a unique effect.

The background of this Terra is rusty red.

Material

The pile of this Terra is made of a durable mixture of wool and viscose. Viscose also acetate silk or rayon is generally obtained from the natural product of cellulose, in other words from the raw material, wood. In India the cellulose mass is obtained from bamboo. In an elaborate process, the pulpy cellulose is pulled into a continuous textile yarn. This is why viscose is also referred to as the continuous filament yarn. Because of the silky sheen of the yarn, viscose obtained from bamboo is also called "Bamboo Silk". The colloquially used designation "artificial silk" is not permitted under the German Textile Labelling Act TKG. The weft and warp threads of this Terra are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and stretchable and, therefore, ideal for a durable backing fabric.
