Nautilus Rug Red

Add to Wishlist

Raised between Darjeeling and Kathmandu, Lisa Mukhia Pretet grew up surrounded by the looms and knotting techniques of the Himalayas long before she co-founded Atelier Février with French designer Florian Pretet. Together they turn Florian’s hand-drawn illustrations, often first sketched in his Moleskine, into rugs hand-knotted stitch by stitch in Nepal, each one eco-friendly by nature and entirely customisable in size, shape and colour.

The Nautilus Rug Red joins Atelier Février’s rug library, presented here in a red colourway. Named after the nautilus, a beautiful spiralling seashell, this design is thought-provoking by nature, symbolising the amalgamation of two forms together with the shimmer of mother-of-pearl. Hand-knotted in Nepal from 50% Himalayan wool and 50% silk, at 125 knots per square inch (200,000 knots per square metre), the wool anchoring the pile while the silk catches the light along the pattern’s finer lines. Because the Nautilus Rug Red is entirely made by hand, expect gentle variations from one piece to the next, proof rather than flaw of a rug that around fifty pairs of hands take months to knot, and one you can still resize or recolour to order.

Each rug is handcrafted by skilled artisans who master ancestral techniques such as hand knotting, weaving, and tufting. Due to its handmade nature, there may be slight variations in size and colour, and the patterns may adjust proportionally when the rug is scaled to different sizes. Colours are subject to sample approval and colours shown may vary with lighting and environment.
