This is the Tumbuctú rug from the Glaoui collection, a piece available in two sizes made with a complex artisanal system that alternates three types of technique. The different textures and volumes of its motifs are created with knotted pile, flat weave and embroidery, a laborious method of Moroccan origin from which the collection takes its name. The Glaoui collection comprises a series of rugs and poufs that blend, in an eclectic and harmonious way, a varied style of patterns and textures. A complex traditional Moroccan technique taken to another aesthetic dimension by designer Sandra Figuerola, who drew inspiration from colours, graphics and topographies of African and Indian origin for its motifs.
