Centaurus, Core, Echelon, Labyrinth, Nuevo, Nuevo II, Pair, Stacked and Tsubaki are fashion-forward, geometric and bold. They are highly versatile and can be made to custom size, color and texture.
Warp & Weft’s newest addition to its Modern Collection, Verona, takes inspiration from the works of the Arts and Crafts period. More specifically, William Morris wallpaper patterns. Oversized floral elements are reinterpreted to achieve a more contemporary look. A tweed of Himalayan wool and Indian mulberry silk gives the rug a vibrancy, depth and an elegant sheen.
