Style icon and acclaimed Italian designer Allegra Hicks, known for her organic and sophisticated designs, began to work with The Rug Company in 2004. 

With a long and prestigious history in textile and rug designing, Hicks brought with her years of experience. 

Using a unique print vocabulary which is applied to all her collections, her style can be described as timelessly elegant, sophisticated, organic, and eclectic, often with a vintage feel. Her recognizable elegance and style, with pure, earthy tones, translate beautifully into her collectable range for The Rug Company. Allegra Hicks rugs feature soft patterns, mostly inspired by nature, which are enhanced by richness of the wool and silk yarns.

This rug is entirely handmade, from the spinning of the yarns to the weaving on the loom. It is unique, and has been crafted by weavers in the Kathmandu area, whose skills have been passed down through many generations. We use only the finest natural yarns; the Tibetan wool is renowned for its softness and durability, while the fine silk brings a delicate lustre that enhances the design of the rug. To this we have added the vision of a world class designer, and the result is a hand knotted contemporary rug of extraordinary beauty which will itself become an heirloom to be treasured for years to come.
