Butterfly Wool offers a more refined interpretation of the butterfly motif, where the form is clearly defined yet softly dissolves into the background, evoking the layered quality of paper in Lucia Eames’ work. 

The combination of hand-knotted Afghan wool and kilim weaving allows for variations in height and density, creating a subtle interplay between definition and diffusion. This contrast adds visual depth while highlighting the craftsmanship behind each piece. 

Its material richness and density make it particularly suited for spaces where a more sophisticated and expressive presence is desired.

Fibers

100% Afghan Wool

Afghan wool comes from sheep grazed high in the mountains of Afghanistan. Naturally corrugated, it is a very resistant material with a rough touch. Due to the curl of the wool and the irregularity in the yarn, when weaving it it achieves an aged and unique look.

Technique

Hand loomed Kilim

Manual weaving on a vertical or horizontal loom that plays with the intersection between weft and warp.

It is characterized by being thin, hairless and with geometric motifs. High-density rugs, durable and resistant, even when they are very light rugs.

Cleaning and care

Tips

Vacuum frequently.

Clean stains with the appropriate solution before they dry.

Take the rug to specialized dry cleaners, if necessary.
