A life at ground level, a soft and relaxing topography, a domestic oasis, carpets that fly! Flying Carpet is more than just a simple carpet. Its topography turns it into a comfortable and amusing three-dimensional space to sit, stretch and relax, either in domestic or public areas. Any of its corners can be lifted by wedges covered in natural grey felt. The carpet is available in three colours and two sizes.
The Handloom System:
The Handloom System uses a manually actuated loom. It is also referred to as the rod system, like the Wilton System, differing only due to its manual operation. It also allows for the weaving of both looped and cut pile. It only permits simple designs.
