Casali Pello Rug
PELLO RUG
PELLO RUG
Super-soft and warm, with a unique touch. The pello really does get the best out of nature with a primal feel that combines ultimate comfort with animal warmth.
These qualities are owed to the hollow, heat-insulating fiber of the alpaca, the unique, natural fleece of which was the model for the authentic colours. There is no room for doubt, with the handmade pello, you are bringing home a piece of untouched nature. Can be used as a wall-to-wall carpet.
DESIGNER
LISET VAN DER SCHEER
After graduating from the design academy in eindhoven she has been working as an independent industrial textile designer and colour expert. 'the importance of designing to me lies in marketing a product that adds to the identity that the consumer wishes to convey at a particular moment in time.
In my designs, the challenge lies in applying traditional materials in an innovative way, or in applying new materials to an existing production process.
I always try to stretch the bounds of possibility. Looking at colour has become my second nature, and in building designs, be it textiles or carpets, the starting point is always the expression of the yarn'.

MATERIALS
ROBOT TUFTING
It’s 12:32 pm in Flanders
For plain colour carpets or easy designs, a robot can replace the manual work of the handtufters, increasing the uniformity of the pile density and also allowing for new techniques (3D shapes).
ALPACA WOOL
The wool from peruvian alpacas resembles ultimate comfort coupled with authentic colours and incredible softness.
MIX WOOL
In some collections, materials from several sources are used to obtain a stronger yarn. Special blends from new zealand wool and european wool ensure an optimum combination of elegant gloss, brilliant colours and a remarkable volume.
