The Manchurian Collection is hand woven in China. This Collection is based on Antique Persian Rug designs, but using a contemporary color palette. The main characteristic of these rugs, is the noticeable “abrash,” one can see there are two distinct colors, woven alternatively in the ground and the border. The patterns contain larger floral palmettes .
With a very high knot count of approximately 240 knot per square inch, and using only the finest wools from New Zealand & Mongolia, the result is the character of an heirloom rug with the resilience of a new one.
A new technique of weaving between two color hues, imparts an antique look, without placing the carpet through the rigorous and potentially damaging antique wash process. Therefore improving the quality of the carpet.
