BESPOKE RUGS
WHO SAYS SOUL ONLY HAS ONE COLOUR...
Joss Stone
‘I gather inspiration from many sources; my interior design practice where I work with wonderful wall coverings and stunning fabrics, my travels to beautiful and exciting places, the bark on a tree, a pebble from the beach , the inside of a shell, wild seas, leaves, the list goes on….. ‘
OUR APPROACH
If your space requires something unique Katherine Richards will personally work with you to create a rug perfect for you
There are more than 2,000 colours to choose from and the rugs are made from beautiful natural yarns such as New Zealand wool, mohair, and hand spun silk. The best quality viscose which will add irresistible sheen can also be used
At the end of the design process you can be sure of lasting satisfaction and the guarantee that you have a one off original piece which will never be repeated for any other client
HOW THEY ARE MADE
The workers we employ weave to the highest standards and don’t mass produce so nothing is rushed
The yarns are dyed and the rugs are woven and finished on site in a small third generation family run establishment in India
Every piece is dyed, woven and washed with extreme care and fastidious skill using traditional techniques.
No computers, no machines, no noise
The workrooms surround a pretty courtyard with trees. ‘It’s a beautiful eye opener and refreshing to see such a peaceful and calm working environment ’
The finest natural are yarns used which giving these rugs the stunning finish the designs deserve
