Dimensions: W 200 x L 300 cm Available in colors: karo, linea 1, linea 2, moton, oruga. The Subas Karo rug, available in three sizes, is a subtle, monochrome design by Sebastian Herkner, who experimented with mixing different structures and surfaces. The entirely handmade piece combines a stripe and checks pattern as well as various pile heights and weaving techniques, giving the wool rug a contemporary feel while showcasing the artful craftsmanship of the Colombian weavers. It’s understated, yet the intriguing design that’s great for adding textures to any room. Each rug is manufactured in family-run workshops located in Suba, a suburb of Colombia’s capital Bogotá. The craftspeople there have learned the techniques to process sheep wool from previous generations. Alone the preparation of the wool takes three days, while the artesanos and artesanas work 15 days on producing the final rug.
