DESCRIPTION

The shimmer of the South Seas floats through Bali, with its totemic designs evoking island idylls - an escape from a too-contemporary world.  No details were spared in weaving this intricate piece. The ivory Tibetan wool background features a looped bouclé knot creating a distinct texture and also utilizes a special dyeing technique that layers darker and lighter tones to create a heathered effect.  The motifs throughout are composed of varying fibers, from true 100% pure silk to our unique blend of wool, silk and nettle fibers which adds depth and shine from every perspective. The design elements feature tones of silver, platinum and grey-blue. This piece has been crafted by hand in our true 100 knot quality. color: ivory

CRAFTSMANSHIP

New Moon’s main Tibetan production is hand-crafted by the most skilled artisans in Nepal.  For a select few collections, we have expanded our production reach into India where the historic weaving tradition is best suited to create different knotting techniques.  We use only 100% natural Indian wool, adding to the organic feel, quality and texture.  All of our raw materials are pot-dyed by hand in small batches and our finished rugs are only gently washed to maintain the integrity of the natural lanolin in the wool which is a natural stain repellent, allowing it to develop a natural patina over time.  To maintain the artistic integrity of our designs, we continue to draw our graphs by hand to ensure that the details of our hand-painted designs are translated into woven art.  As a second generation family business, you can trust that the artistic integrity as well as the craftsmanship of each piece are held to the absolute highest standards.
