ANTIQUA CARPET

ANTIQUA WAS DESIGNED OUT OF LONGING FOR LOST WORLDS -- ANCIENT SYMBOLS, HARMONIC SHAPES, AND LINES THAT RECALL COMPASSES, MANDALAS, OR FORGOTTEN VISUAL LANGUAGES. It is a tapestry centered within a point -- and not just a geometric one. He seeks to stop the gaze, focus it, and rotate a world around it. AS PART OF THE TIMELESS COLLECTION, CARPET REEXAMINES THE CONCEPT OF TIME: THERE IS SOMETHING MYTHICAL BUT PRECISE IN IT, LOADED WITH SYMBOLISM BUT FREE FROM UNNECESSARY DECORATION. The sharp graphic lines were born out of formative precision, but the overall composition retains a mystical sense of depth. ANTIQUA IS HAND-WOVEN, FROM ONLY NATURAL MATERIALS, IN A TECHNIQUE THAT HIGHLIGHTS EVERY LINE AND CONTOUR — CREATING A RUG THAT NOT ONLY EXISTS IN A SPACE, BUT DEFINES IT. Designed by Gadi Carmel, our chief designer — who subtly connects past, present and imagination, offering each rug a layered meaning.
