The Alpagota is an indigenous Italian sheep with a thick and wavy coat, with a color that varies from the prevalent yellow to brownish.

The design of the blanket and its particular pattern have a charming story connected to the past and ancient gestures.

Thanks to its characteristics, the Alpago sheep has a triple productive attitude: meat, wool, but also milk. For counting the quantity of milk, hazelnut sticks were engraved on roman numbers corresponding to the kilos of milk

DETAIL

The stick, called Tessera, was then divided into two: one part remained with the owner while the other with the one who kept the accounts. Like the Tessera, our blanket is made up of two parts, the two together showing the signs used for counting the milk.

DESIGNER - RUGA. PERISSINOTTO

The idea to set up a joint design studio was the outcome of a meeting in London in 2010. The building that houses our company is part of a late-18th century rural house, hence the initial idea to use the pseudonym casa1796 for our first projects undertaken together.

We come from very different backgrounds of experience (Alessandro, a designer, and Carlotta, an architect), therefore our skills enable us to take a versatile approach to design issues, with constant interaction and plenty of input that lead to unique projects. Lately we started our research on local natural materials and fell in love with traditional ancient wools and related techniques of production.
