Diurne is the rug atelier of the painter and art historian Marcel Zelmanovitch, founded at Galerie Diurne in the heart of Paris’s Quartier Latin. Trained to look at a picture before he ever looked at a loom, he approaches every rug as a blank canvas, translating gesture, colour theory and even the swipe of a finger on an iPad screen into knotted wool and silk.
The Bordure Florale 04 Rug designed by Diurne rounds out the floral-border series with a cooler, more contained palette, proof of how far Marcel Zelmanovitch can stretch a single motif across a whole family of rugs. Since founding Galerie Diurne in 1982, he has approached these recurring designs the way a painter might return to a subject across a series of canvases.
Hand-knotted in Nepal from 80% wool and 20% pure silk with 200,000 Tibetan knots, the Bordure Florale 04 Rug uses fine Tibetan knotting to keep its floral pattern precise even in its most delicate, pale colourways. Bespoke dimensions and colours are available on request.
After studying art history and visual arts, Marcel Zelmanovitch launched Galerie Diurne in 1982, his studio/exhibition space in the heart of Quartier Latin in Paris. An artist, and accomplished painter, he looks at rugs as though they were blank canvases, on which he can draw his original patterns. Additionally, Marcel wanted to revive Nepal’s artisanal rug-making traditions thanks to his original, one-of-a-kind artworks. Today, Diurne is one of the most sought-after brands for unique rugs, mostly designed by Marcel Zelmanovitch – he has delivered more than 30 collections- alongside special collaborations with contemporary architects and designers.
