GLAOUI TUMBUCTÚ RUG COLORS

Reference: GLALFTUMBUCTUCOL

Availability:

$1,670.00

This is the Tumbuctú rug from the Glaoui collection, a piece available in two sizes and made using a complex artisanal method that alternates three types of techniques. The different textures and volumes of its motifs are accomplished through hand-knotting, flat weaving and embroidery -a laborious method of Moroccan origin from which the collection takes its name.


This model is the most colorful version of Tumbuctú, woven with 100% virgin wool yarns in green, lilac and indigo tones, among others. As an accent, the rug presents original braided fringes.

Details

The Glaoui collection includes a series of rugs and poufs that combine, in an eclectic and harmonious way, a varied style of patterns and textures. A complex traditional Moroccan technique brought to a different aesthetic dimension by designer Sandra Figuerola, who was inspired by the colors, graphics and topographies of African and Indian origin for her motives.

Glaoui, a GAN Spaces Collection

GAN spaces are collections meticulously constructed from innovative concepts and artisanal production methods. Suggestive proposals that, stemming from a rug, are capable of bringing to life a whole family of modules and accessories with which to design an environment or “space”. A set of designs linked together, designed to project stimulating and contemporary atmospheres with an open, flexible and casual configuration.
