Designed by Doshi Levien, Rabari rugs are handmade from 100% New Zealand wool using two techniques: hand-knotted and hand-woven soumak. With a woven base and knotted details that embody the freedom to improvise and the serendipity inherent in each step of a handmade piece, this collection is a refined combination of patterns with a unique graphic sensuality.

New Zealand wool
Typically, New Zealand wool is known to be the whitest, cleanest, purest and most natural in the world. Its softness is due in part to the altitude and the vegetation available to the herds. It is guaranteed to be cruelty-free.
