Aquila Rug

€1.460,40

Margo Selby has joined forces with Christopher Farr to produce the Aquila rug, the design directly relates to her handwoven artworks.

Made in pure wool using a hand-tufting technique, a rug such as Aquila is at the intersection of Margo Selby’s practice and the embodiment of her tenet: Art-Into-Industry.

“I use thread to create abstract geometric artworks that explore repetition and transition, symmetry and asymmetry, the dynamic and the stable.  Colour is a driving force behind my work; I enjoy the infinite effects of many subtle hues and tones that can be explored when blending from one colour to another.”
Margo Selby

Alongside Christopher’s own work, the company collaborates with a considered roster of international artists, architects, fashion designers and other visionaries to produce a selection of designs that remains unrivalled in its creative scope.

Underlay + Rug care

An underlay provides cushioning that increases the longevity of a rug; we advise customers to use a good quality anti-slip underlay, for this reason, and to prevent a rug from creasing and slipping, whether on a carpet or a hard floor. Underlay also protects the floor covering beneath from transference of colours or fibres from the back of the rug.
