DESCRIPTION

Inspired by intricate Elizabethan needlework, and the flowering of late Renaissance naturalistic design, Flora brings a spectacular nature theme to life.  The most detailed and intricate rug that New Moon produces, featuring 176 different color combinations.  It is truly a piece of art.  The background is a blend of Tibetan wool, Chinese silk and natural nettle fibers in a soft hue of ivory.  The design motifs are woven in luxurious Chinese silk creating highlights and movement of color throughout.  Teeming with colors, a garden of delight, featuring tones of chartreuse, citron, olive green, teal, aqua, celery, khaki, grey, bronze, gold, yellow, pale mint, peach, periwinkle, coral, dusty rose, lilac, lavender, cobalt blue and black.  Majestic birds of paradise streak hues of sunflower yellow, gold and plum across the sky.  The central sun shines rays of gold, yellow, apricot and platinum light across the ivory field to breathe life into this vibrant Garden of Eden.  This piece has been crafted by hand in our true 100 knot quality.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

New Moon rugs are hand-crafted by the most skilled artisans in Nepal. Following only the timeless traditional method of Tibetan rug weaving, we value the integrity of our product and insure that all of our rugs are woven using a “crossed” foundation. We use only the finest grade Tibetan wool available on the market, which importantly has also been hand-carded and hand-spun adding to the organic feel, quality and texture. Our silk is imported from China to ensure that the clarity and luster is the best in the industry.

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 repellant, 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. And we are proud to produce a finished product with the lowest pile height and most refined texture and ‘handle’ available on the market. As a second generation family business, you can trust that the artistic integrity as well as the craftmanship of each piece are held to the absolute highest standards.
