They are carpets Jim, but not as we know them

Torana Squares are novel carpet designs that we have created exclusively for the NEST design collective in Shanghai. Details and a full list of designs are on our website

We've departed from the normal rectangular format, as well as from the colors and patterns you'd expect to see on a carpet.

These rugs are still made at our workshop in Lhasa, from pure Tibetan wool and with the same care and attention that we put into all our carpets. The brilliant shades have all been achieved with non toxic, azo free dyes which are fully absorbed onto the wool and hence safe for the environment (as well as for our customers!).

They are available in sizes ranging from 3ftx3ft, 4ftx4ft, 5ftx5ft and upwards.
For our Shanghai customers, Torana Squares are on sale exclusively at the NEST design collective on Tai Kang Lu (see previous-but-one post in this blog for details). We hope to make them available to our Beijing customers soon, and they can also be ordered in the meantime.
