cc-tapis EUPHORBIA CURLY-WURLY Rectangular handmade Himalayan Wool rug

EUPHORBIA CURLY-WURLY is a handmade rectangular Himalayan wool rug.‎ COLOR COMBINATION: standard MATERIALS: Himalayan wool QUALITY: A+ (152.‎000 knots / sqm) EUPHORBIA is a new collection inspired and developed from Bethan’s ink drawings, made in confinement during lockdown.‎ Bethan decided to take the opportunity to draw every couple of days, sketching her Euphorbia Sipolisii f.‎ Crestata succulents, fascinated by their curls.‎ Every plant has a unique growing habit, creating wildly different formations like living calligraphy.‎ Bethan fell in love with their forms, studying them as they slowly grew, rotating them each time to get a different point of view.‎ The meditative act of observation and drawing became a cathartic exercise during the strange and peculiar times that was lockdown.‎ Working with cc-tapis, they developed a delicate triptych and a large single rug, made entirely in Himalayan wool.‎ cc-tapis artisans interpreted the original drawings of Bethan with black wool whilst the natural tones of the undyed pile gently and delicately cover the design, purposefully knotted with a longer yarn.‎ A contrast which respects and echos the marks of the ink pen Bethan used.‎
