Stories - SILENCE RUG

The Silence rug was first presented at the Salone Satellite exhibition in Milan in 2004.

The initial prototype was truly handmade, but because it was well received,
for the Milan exhibition the following year, we introduced a rug that incorporated reflective thread into the wool to express the sparkling glitter of snow.

Since then, the Silence rug has received high acclaim at numerous international design exhibitions (such as 100% Norway in London in 2007 and Design Tokyo in 2008).

Dimensions: ?1600 mm x H30 mm
Pile material: 99.5% New Zealand virgin wool

Backing material: 100% cotton
