HALFSTRIPE - Ручной шерстяной ковер в полоску

Halfstripe is a rug inspired by traditional West African stripe weaving techniques, but using a visual language reminiscent of minimalist abstract expressionism.‎ The rug is made with a manual loom, 90% New Zealand wool and 10% cotton with a shaved wool fleece finish.‎ Customizable color and size.‎ Not suitable for outdoor use.‎ The technique used for pile rugs consists in intersecting the longitudinal threads (spectrum) with the transversal threads (weft).‎ The yarn is stretched onto the loom to create a tight warp.‎ Working from the bottom upwards, the artisans weave the weft, creating various patterns and textures.‎ To create the “pile”, the fibre is wound around a special shaft during the weaving process and cut to ensure it is the same height.‎ The backing to the pile is in cotton and holds the framework of the rug together.‎ The final effect is a soft, supple rug.‎ Further info from manufacturer on HALFSTRIPE Karpeta
