Made with durable hand-knotted wool, this 3x3 rug is an exceptional new addition to the Burano Collection by Rug & Kilim. This piece is profoundly inspired by a particular textile of the tribe—an antique Soumac bag originally used in nomadic daily life, brilliantly reinterpreted into a luxurious wool pile.On the Design:The rug is a masterful translation of a nomadic artefact into a refined modern textile. The core design is a beautiful homage to the tribe's signature geometry, often seen in their original Soumac flatwoven style.The central field is dominated by a tight, dense lattice of interlocking geometric motifs—a vibrant, almost pixelated repeat of small forms in deep navy, brick red, and peach. This central intensity is beautifully framed by a wide, contrasting border in a serene sage green/celadon hue, which features large, bold tribal figures and stylized animal motifs.The ingenuity of this piece lies in its texture: the original bag was created using the flat, wrapping Soumac technique, and here, the design is brilliantly executed in a hand-knotted wool pile. This change in texture lends the rigid geometry a subtle, sophisticated dimensionality. It’s an intentional contribution to a classic for a more contemporary level of comfort, and one of the many beauties that makes the Burano Collection a sophisticated, smart new language in design.Custom Capable: All sizes and colors available—inquire for a quote.
