Warli Big Sur Rug
BIG SUR RUG
BIG SUR RUG
Designed by Paolo Zani, 2015
Handwoven 'dhurrie' rug in wool and recycled viscose.
Big Sur has embroidered borders in the same colors of the corresponding woven area. A detail that enriches a seemingly simple and rigorous design, re-using scrapes of viscose from the textile industry.

PRODUCT CARE
Vacuum regularly. Sweep the carpet surface with a soft broom or vacuum clean it in the direction of the pile. Blot stains immediately, possibly with very little water, dry instantly with white absorbing cloth and hair dryer. If, after the above treatments, you’re not able to remove the stains, or if the rug is placed in heavy traffic public areas, we recommend the service of a professional cleaner.
