The Zoumey rug is based on the Four leg stool by Arno Declercq. It’s a reference to the blocks created by the legs of the stool. Together we converted this design into a pattern and applied it on the rug. Iroko wood coming from Benin and locally called “the king of the forest” is a very spiritual wood for the Fan culture in Benin.They name a forest of Iroko trees “Zoumey forest” Made of Merino and Mohair.They are both very thin and shiny yarns.The combination of the two is extremely soft and looks very chic.
