interpret the ancient Tibetan art of hand knotted carpet, exploring new materials (banana silk, aloe, hemp, linen, cactus) and new techniques.
Textile art master pieces are created, with a cultivated design communication bringing colour, preciousness and warmth to spaces.
Carpets thought and chosen in the respect of the Tibetan textile tradition which is carefully preserved in each working phase from the collection of the precious wool that nomads bring from pastures above 4000 mt., to carding, dyeing, weaving, finishing and washing.
The care for details, the dignity of working and the eco-sustainability are the ethics of the whole production.
Unique art carpets, collectible pieces, precious daily life and heritage objects.

600 hours per square meter: Tibetan carpets
From a workshop on the ‘Tibetan carpet weaving’ techniques, held in cooperation with Tsetan Sonam Carpets, born the idea to update a centuries old technique using the new generation’s creative modalities, aware of the product value estimated in working hours.
The result is a number carpet drawings expressing a creative, productive, geographic and temporal continuity.
