Influenced by traditional style weaving looms, layer by layer intersections of embroidered geometric pattern are intricately overlapped with areas of complimenting high and low pile; hand-crafted using varying techniques. Providing versatility and tranquillity with an appealing palette of calm neutral or indigo hues, elegantly highlighted with graphical lines of subtle colour, the Lan rug is easily suited to an array of spaces, perfect for creating a serene minimalist environment at the heart of the home. A textile brand with strong ethical values, GAN ensures that manufacturing has as little impact on the environment as possible, this particularly environmentally friendly piece was interestingly made from virgin wool by the brand's very own Women's unit, a team of talented female embroiderers.
