What materials do you work with?
We curate materials for beauty, durability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. Wool is our most popular base; silk adds luxury and sheen. Bamboo silk and Tencel offer eco-conscious alternatives. Synthetics like PET are practical for high-traffic areas. Blends combine the best properties. We help you choose based on your space and values.
What are bamboo silk and Tencel?
Bamboo silk (regenerated from bamboo pulp) and Tencel (similar, made from eucalyptus) are sustainable, vegan alternatives to traditional silk. They’re lustrous and beautiful but slightly less delicate than silk. Ideal for clients who want silk’s aesthetics with better durability and sustainable sourcing.
Are your materials sustainable and ethically sourced?
Sustainability matters to us. We’re transparent about material sourcing and continually improve our supply chain. Ask us specifically about the origin of materials for your project—we have detailed information. We can’t guarantee perfection, but we’re committed to responsible practices.
Can I use synthetic or pet-friendly materials?
Synthetics are practical and underrated. PET (made from recycled plastic bottles) is durable, easy-clean, and environmentally responsible. Nylon blends are equally tough. These materials still allow beautiful custom design and colour. They’re perfect for high-traffic, high-mess homes.
Can I blend materials in one rug?
Blends are smart. You get wool’s durability with silk’s lustre, or cotton’s texture with wool’s warmth. Common blends include 70% wool / 30% silk for luxury with durability, or wool-cotton-jute for textured, eco-conscious pieces. Blends are discussed during material selection.
