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 Surya Rug 3 joins Atelier Février’s rug library, presented here as edition No. 3 in the series. Named after the Hindu sun god, the blazing, haloing pattern of Surya is inspired by paintings from the fifteenth century. Hand-knotted in Nepal from 85% Himalayan wool and 15% silk, at 150 knots per square inch (230,000 knots per square metre), the wool anchoring the pile while the silk catches the light along the pattern’s finer lines. Every Surya Rug 3 is made to order over some twelve to sixteen weeks by a combined workforce of more than fifty artisans, and, true to Atelier Février’s spirit, can be resized, reshaped or recoloured entirely to your own specification.
Founders of Atelier Février, Florian Pretet and Lisa Mukhia Pretet design together outstanding rugs skillfully hand-knotted in Nepal. Their pieces are the epitome of contemporary art fused with traditonal craftsmanship. Real life partners, coming from different cultural and professional backgrounds, their association is drawn from those common passions for art, fashion, craft and expertise.
