What Makes Tibetan Wool the Gold Standard for Custom Rugs
Every great rug begins long before the loom. It begins on the animal, in the place, in the particular conditions that made the fiber what it is. And among all the wools that have ever been spun into a carpet, few can rival the wool of the Tibetan highlands, a material whose superiority is not a matter of marketing but of altitude, climate, and the unhurried logic of the natural world. The sheep of the Tibetan plateau live at elevations that would defeat most living things, thin air, brutal cold, a growing season measured against a sky closer than it has any right to be. Nature's answer to that severity is the fleece. To survive the plateau, the animal must grow a wool of exceptional density and, crucially, of exceptional lanolin content; the natural oil that coats each fiber, repels water, resists soil, and lends the finished yarn a luster and resilience that lowland wools cannot approach. What is hardship for the animal is a gift to the weaver.

The Evolution of Floral Motifs in Antique Rugs and Kilims: Mapping the Pomegranate, Tulip, and Carnation
Antique 17th Century French Beauvais Tapestry with Floral Vase - Rug & Kilim, NO. 36829 We had a tapestry acquisition unfolding itself in the studio a while ago. Josh and the team just stood there, silently admiring the way the light caught the threads. This was the Antique French Beauvais Tapestry (SKU 36829). It was handwoven in wool, with natural silk accents, circa 1700. When you look at something like that, you do not just see fabric. What you see is the garden of wool and dreams. The precise interlacing of the wefts gives a picture of a gigantic floral vase placed atop an architectural entablature. The botanical imagery is absolutely mesmerizing. There is so much wealth and mystery to it all.

A Brief Overview of the Danish Modern Design Movement of the 20th-Century
Danish Modern, or Scandinavian Modern, constitutes a design movement that surfaced in the mid-20th century, notably flourishing during the 1940s to the 1960s. Originating in Denmark, it swiftly garnered global acclaim for its pioneering and minimalist take on furniture and interior design. Danish Modern exerted substantial influence in shaping the overarching mid-century modern design movement. The early 20th century marked a period of significant upheaval, and the Danish modern movement emerged not merely as an artistic response to these changes but as a manifestation of the country's ethos—characterized by simplicity, functionality, and a harmonious connection with nature.

A Brief Guide to Tabriz Rugs
Tabriz rugs are some of the most sought-after pieces in Persian rug-making. Hand-knotted in the city of Tabriz, Iran, these rugs are renowned for their beautiful designs and exquisite craftsmanship. Since the 16th century, the city of Tabriz has been an epicenter of the Persian rug industry. Today, its works remain some of the most coveted in all handmade rug provenances. One of many elements that set Tabriz rugs apart from other Persian carpets is the variety of designs and motifs used. From geometric patterns to florals and paisleys, Tabriz rugs typically feature a wide range of intricate patterns, creating a beautiful tapestry of color and texture. Additionally, Tabriz rugs are typically made with high-quality wool, which gives many a soft and luxurious texture. They are, however, one of the select Persian rug provenances with silk rugs in their ancestry.

A Glossary of Handmade Rugs and Kilims: Understanding Terms, Types and Techniques Past and Present
Referring to the art style characterized by using shape and color withdrawn from traditional repetition or realism. Abstract rugs — sometimes referred to as art rugs — capture an expressive nature that reads as a very modern style, though many abstract rugs draw inspiration from works of the same art style in the mid-century. One of the more widely known mid-century lineages of this style is abstract expressionism, named for the literal "expressionists" of the 1950s. Some of the most notable names behind this style include Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. Referring to a lineage of nomadic Persian rugs (sometimes referred to as “Avsar” in the alternate spelling). Afshar rugs hail from the eponymous tribe in the region of Northeastern Iran.
