What happens when a creative Austrian company asks Afghan weavers to reinterpret a Moroccan nomadic carpet in an idiosyncratic way? The result is the Crazy Floors collection by Oritop: long-pile, unique pieces made of pure new wool, some in very cheerful, colourful shades and with patterns reminiscent of the Moroccan Beni Ouarain.
Genuine Moroccan Berber rugs, directly from stock – Theo Keller has many years of experience in this field. "We are one of the few stockists – if not the only one – that has such a broad range of these pieces," explains Marketing Manager Martin Keller.
Specifically, this means that Theo Keller has all Berber qualities from Simple to Triple, the regular product range covers a total of 232 items.
South Persian nomadic carpets made of high-quality wool that fit perfectly into modern living situations: This is what the "Gabbeh Man" Homayoun Farhadian has set out to provide to his customers. A correspondingly large selection is stored in the new Hamburg warehouse near the airport: from the classic Gabbeh quality yarn to the Lori Nowbaft and the fine Loribaft Atash (around 250,000 knots).
A soft colour gradient that cleverly plays with hand-spun wool and viscose: The PC 164 M033 CV design from the Makalu Edition collection is hand-knotted in Nepal.
The Swiss importer Zollanvari is a great re-inventor of the Persian nomad carpet. His creations are handmade from handspun and plant-dyed wool, and you can detect their nomadic origin in every piece, even in those that bear modern Japanese-inspired patterns or designs by contemporary artists.
According to Nordsüd, only a few weavers still master the traditional Nimbaft technique: it combines the kilim flatweave technique with hand-knotted accents; this gives the carpets a three-dimensional, relief-like surface.
Nomen est omen with the new Landscape collection by Rezas: The designs are called Cliff, River, Cave and Fields and strongly inspired by nature. All carpets are hand-knotted of 100% natural wool and cut in a hi-low style. Their subtle colouring makes them compatible with many interiors.
With its Shine and Groove collections, Tom Tailor sets the scene with soft and shiny viscose, pure or in combination with virgin wool. Both collections can be ordered in individual custom sizes, but are also available in many sizes directly from stock.
