This collection is based on antique oriental rug designs but uses a contemporary color palette. The main characteristic of these rugs is the noticeable abrash (color change), a new technique of weaving between two color hues, which imparts an antique look. With a very high knot count of approximately 240 knots per square inch, and using only the finest wool from New Zealand and Mongolia, the result is the character of an heirloom rug with the resilience of a new one.
