Blur is based on a repeated geometric sequence, the hallmark of the Bouroullec brothers. Lightweight and durable, this indoor kilim rug traces green and black lines on an off-white background, characteristic of Afghan wool.
Density 156.000 yarns/m2
Fibers
100% Hand-spun Afghan wool
Afghan wool comes from sheep grazing high in the mountains of Afghanistan. Naturally wavy, it is a very resistant material with a rough touch. Due to the curl of the wool and the irregularity in the yarn, when weaving it, it achieves an aged and unique appearance.

Cleaning and care
Tips

Blur collection
The sequence of geometric shapes and repetition are definitive hallmarks of the Bouroullec brothers.
Their mastery, meticulousness, and tireless ability to always go a step further, has led them to work on Blur, a collection that offers two different readings. When viewing the rug from afar, an indefinite, unfocused surface is apparent, that gives its name to the collection. Nevertheless, upon approaching the rug, lines and rhythmic rhombuses in different proportions are revealed, in the purest kinetic style.This blurred effect has been achieved by inverting the sense in which the kilims are traditionally woven, which makes the process much more laborious.
