Description
Overview
Shighera (2020) is a Giorgetti rug of wool, bamboo silk and linen, made with the technique of hand tufting.
Construction
The rug is characterised by a bouclé veil in Himalayan wool and bamboo silk from which the graphic pattern in linen rises. The glossy/opaque effect given by the three materials gives a changing behaviour to the light, so the refined play of lines can be perceived even in the monochromatic version.
Specifications
- Versions: GA241 in one colour, GA242 in two colours
- Materials: wool, linen, bamboo silk
- Size: custom, without limitations
Story
A graphic pattern in linen
In Shighera a bouclé veil of Himalayan wool and bamboo silk lets the linen graphic pattern rise from it.
Light on three materials
The glossy and opaque effect of the three materials changes under the light. The play of lines stays perceivable in the one-colour version, and the two colours of the contrasting version can be chosen freely.
