In the mists of time, the origin of silk is lost, a precious natural yarn obtained from a fibre of animal origin and particularly appreciated for weaving. Worked in China as early as 3000 BC, the legend traces silkworm breeding to the Empress Xi Ling Shi.
Of course silk was used by the emperors, and then the nobles and the rich, luxury reserved for a few.
The silk soon conquered the whole world and, despite the first connoisseurs of this art that wanted to keep it secret, the production spread with centres of excellence all over the world, and in Europe already in the Byzantine era.
Even today, silk does not cease to fascinate for its lightness and brilliance, and a rug with these characteristics, especially if made by hand and with an exclusive design, is undoubtedly synonymous with luxury.
Lightweight, not only in terms of weight, but also in the presence as an interior design accessory, the silk rug gives a fresh look to the room, and a particularly pleasing comfort when the season gets warmer.
From the creative idea to the design, translating a concept into the language of weaving. This is how we create luxury rugs that are perfectly in tune with a general interior design idea.
