Why does silk cost more than wool?
Pure silk fibre costs significantly more than wool. Dyers and weavers require more expertise to handle silk without damage. Quality control is more rigorous. The result is a material that’s visually luxurious but more expensive to produce. Silk-wool blends offer balance.
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.
Is silk too delicate for home use?
Silk adds unmatched visual beauty to rugs but requires care. It’s delicate to abrasion and staining. However, in appropriate rooms (formal spaces, adult-only areas), silk rugs are stunning and can last decades. We advise on placement and maintenance to maximize its lifespan.
