About this Design
Designer story
Matthew Williamson first collaborated with The Rug Company in 2004, creating an exuberant collection inspired by his worldly travels.
The inspirational young, British designer pulled together all aspects of his creative knowledge from Indian sunsets to spiritual leaders to offer a fresh and dynamic range of unique rugs and a wallhanging. The bold, almost luminous colours in every piece are apparent from Williamson’s countless trips to India. Most recently, Matthew Williamson designed two delicately patterned rugs, Peacock Dark and Peacock Light, motifs which have almost become representative of Matthew Williamson. The rugs feature over scaled peacock feathers with vibrant flashes of lime and fuchsia mixed with rich tones of deep blues and charcoal.
Craftsmanship
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.
