Curator's Notes
Cala is inspired by a traditional Turkish tulu, with a soft blue geometric central medallion and a simple single-line border. Its beige ground is full of movement, with occasional striations of cooler tones that add dynamism. It’s been hand-washed multiple times to achieve extra-soft texture.
Material DetailsNew Zealand wool is a premium wool beloved for its softness and long fibers. Like all wools, it has a hydrophobic layer which repels dust and dirt, and it has lanolin, which provides its trademark luster as well as protects the fiber from breaking or shedding. It's woven onto a sturdy cotton warp for added durability.
SupplierOur partner is a third-generation family-run weaving house in Bhadohi, India. They specialize in hand-knotted plush pile rugs, and their knowledge helped us improve the rugs' construction for strength and less shedding. We like their values, too: creating high quality product and taking good care of their team.
