“The colours in nature always seem to match. The green rug with a birch motif represents the rebirth of spring, whilst the grey rug illustrates the journey towards winter when everything is encapsulated in fog.”

The pit loom, as the name suggests, is positioned over a pit, and the wooden frame is angled for vertical weaving. The artisan sits underneath the frame, and controls it with foot pedals and their hands, crafting rugs with intricate patterns and designs. This setup enables working from both above and below the frame, achieving a very tight weave. Producing a rug with this technique takes about 2-3 days, resulting in a work of art that can add character to any home.
