Walden is a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. A colorful microstructure, on a wool and viscose weaving with a mélange effect. Each of the 6 colors is carefully chosen, ‘tone on tone’ or in contrast with the base yarn. The fringes are obtained by a particular twisting technique and manual application on the edge of the rug.

Dhurrie is a form of hand weaving very similar to “kilim”. It is made up exclusively of warp and weft, woven and not knotted. It is also called “flat weave”. The pattern or design is created solely by the weft which covers the warp. It does not allow for complicated patterns or textured surfaces as the other techniques do. This may at first appear as a limitation. But we have evolved the original technique by introducing additional threads to the basic wool weft (low-pile). The pattern is produced by this secondary high pile in viscose. The carpet is backed with the same latex and cotton canvas method as the hand tufted carpets.
