Boucle

Boucle, the most luxurious woven rug we make. We use a yarn that mixes Alpaca and a little Polyamide (binding agent), when combined creates the looping boucle yarn. The high content of Alpaca makes this weave extremely soft, so even when you add a rougher fibre like Jute it is still super soft. This weave is all about texture and ridiculously soft feel.

Boucle Rugs Include: Puno – Solid / Puno – Heather / Sarapo with Jute / Puno – Silk

Jute Mix

Using a beautiful blend of our natural Peruvian Jute along with our super soft Alpaca fibre, these rugs were inspired to create a natural look with deep texture. The natural look creates a funky earthy feel, adding a little life to any space.
