Amici in garnet
Mixed-fiber flatweave rug
Mixed-fiber flatweave rug
- Viscose, wool and polyester on polyester foundation
- Jacquard-woven flatweave (1/3" or 9mm thick)
- Color palette: cream, spiced pumpkin orange, rust red, yellow ochre
- Latex cotton backing
- Due to its handmade nature a 5% variance in size, color and texture is to be expected.
The Collection
Inspired by, you guessed it, the shape of a prism, this collection is designed with lighting in mind. The small, geometric crystal motifs on these rugs create a gamut of colors, just as white light becomes a rainbow when it passes through a prism. Its weave makes the rich, gleaming shapes seem to transform. Lest you think this rug is flashy, we've got you covered: the jewel-like geographies are cut small, grounded amidst a wide, neutral field.
The Design
The beauty of these pieces is their shapeshifting. Unlike your standard ombre where the overall wash fades from one color to the next, these rugs read like dappled light. For such simple motifs, they dance on the floor, like light shimmers and shakes through a prism. Each design and colorway changes differently. Amici's design features a series of upright triangles. Sounds simple, right? But the colors flow, moving in a sweep from left to right within the motifs.
The Material
In this piece, wool, viscose, and polyester are blended for texture and vibrancy. Wool has a hydrophobic layer which repels dust and dirt, as well as lanolin, which provides its trademark luster and protects the fiber from breaking or shedding. Viscose is extremely soft and durable, and beloved for its pleasing drape and ease in dying. Here it adds a subtle, shifting, silk-like sheen. A semi-synthetic plant material, it's derived from cellulose, which is the main element in plant cell walls. Finally, these are combined with mildew-resistant polyester and a latex cotton backing for stability and strength.
The Maker
Our supplier got their start over 3 decades ago in yarn production. When they expanded into weaving, this material foundation gave them a distinct advantage, granting full control over the yarn quality and consistency of their handwoven rugs. They've always been a step ahead in innovation, collaborating with providers worldwide to procure the best raw material and machinery.
The Designer
Our in-house, all-star design team collaborates across three different countries. Based in Los Angeles, Istanbul, and Mumbai, they put a lot of thought into each and every collection they design. Starting with the weave itself, they determine material and technique, then create moodboards to capture the look and feel before starting to design. When designs are finalized, they conduct an extensive sampling process, perfecting each style and color before it goes to production.
- Vacuum on low power with a non-rotary (no spinning brush) vacuum or suction attachment only.
- Rotate your rug on occasion to ensure even wear over time
- Keep away from excessive moisture
- Due to the hand-crafted nature of our rugs, you can expect to see light shedding, matting, and signs of fiber and thread breakage over time. For high traffic areas, these effects may occur more quickly and easily.
- Spot cleaning instructions:
- Lightly dampen a paper towel or cloth with clean water
- Gently blot the affected area with your damp towel or cloth to dilute the stain
- If the stain persists, try using an unscented, citrus-free, clear soap to avoid bleaching the textile.
- Repeat this process until the stain is removed
- From time to time you may spot tiny flecks of dried hay or grass woven within the fibers-traces of the grazing pastures where the sheep once roamed. These can be removed by hand or with tweezers.
- Because this rug is made from natural wool rich in lanolin, it may release a subtle sheep-like scent when damp. It's simply the fiber's natural character, and it will disappear once dry.
