ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The use of two different materials side by side creates a fascinating interplay of shades whose qualities are enhanced by the "berai", a V-shaped cut that clearly separates the wool from the viscose. This unique material gives the carpet surface a rich, shimmering sheen, that makes us think of the water that inspired its name.

USE
Ideal for the living room or dining room, it is available in sizes 170x240 / 200x300 / 250x350 cm. Minimalist, relaxed, the design of the surface recalls the curves of a river flowing through an stylised landscape of imaginary silent distant lands.
PLAYFUL TOUCH
To add a playful touch to this large modern abstract rug, there are wool fringes in the same colour of the pile, applied by hand.
MATERIAL
Indian wool and viscose on cotton warp. Wool fringes.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Manufactured in India, Water rugs are hand-knotted at 40 knots per square inch, or 62,000 knots per square metre. The knot used is the so-called Tibetan or asymmetrical knot. This ancient weaving technique is unique in the world. A rod is temporarily placed in front of the warp along the entire length of the carpet. A continuous thread is wound around two threads of the warp and then once around the rod. When an entire line is completed, the threads around the rod are cut to create the knots and pile. The result is a high density of knots, which make the rug very wear resistant.

THE PROCESS
In Tibet is used an exclusive carpet weaving technique. While warping is at the same time used a stick to determine the pile height. A continuous thread is constantly wrapped around two threads of the wrap and later one time around the stick. When the entire thread line is completed, they are cutting to be knotted.
MAINTENANCE OF WOOL CARPET
-For cleaning, regularly vacuum the carpets with a suitable appliance capable of removing the dust deposited on the surface, such as carpet cleaner, vacuum cleaner or similar. Adjust if possible the height of the brushes according to the height of the carpet surface. Pay attention to the edges, avoiding to insist on them with the roller or the wheels of the machine. -Wipe the carpet and fringes with a cloth moistened with a solution of cold water and a mild liquid soap or carpet detergent. Never use solvents or aggressive products, which would definitively damage the carpet fibers.

INFORMATION NOTES
Natural fiber rugs such as WOOL and VISCOSE are normally subject to the loss of small quantities of fiber, especially during the first period of use. This phenomenon known as peeling will decrease over time but will not disappear definitively. This is considered a natural feature of natural fiber rugs and is not a defect.
