Building on the success of our initial collaboration with Muller van Severen and Gallery Valerie Traan, we are thrilled to introduce our second carpet design, the Carpet blue/yellow.

Inspired by a drawing from Muller van Severen, the carpet is a captivating collage of Fien's work. The meticulous process of color selection and material choice was highly intricate. Transforming the design into a carpet proved to be a challenging yet rewarding endeavor. With over 46 colors, the carpet features a stunningly intense background that transitions from a lighter blue down the full width of the rug. This background meets a deeply intense blue color in the top left corner and a slightly lighter intense blue in the top right, creating a visually striking effect. The beautiful yellow, crafted in 100 percent pure Chinese silk, provides a captivating contrast against the woolen blue background.

For those interested in acquiring this unique piece, it is currently available at Ashtari Carpets. Contact us for further details:

ABOUT THE DESIGNERS

Muller Van Severen was founded in the early Spring of 2011. With both Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen being artists, it’s natural that the collection sits somewhere between design and art. The couple has been on an inspired quest for sculpturally interesting furniture objects, always including the space around it, and characterized by a careful research into their shared passion for art, architecture and materials. At the same time Muller Van Severen’s designs appear to be created almost intuitively and with total effortlessness. It looks as if the designers draw with crayons in space.

After winning countless awards and collaborating with prestigious museums (such as Vitra Museum, Centre Pompidou and Musée d'Art Decorative Paris) and galleries (Galerie Kreo, Side Gallery, Valerie Traan Gallery) worldwide, Muller Van Severen is considered to be one of the most image-defining European design teams of today. Their creations are globally identified in both private homes and public spaces. All of Muller Van Severens own production pieces are handmade by small-scale fabricators and skilled artisans, with an honesty to the rawness and irregularity of the chosen material.

ABOUT THE COLLABORATION

We are privileged to announce our collaboration with Hannes and Fien for the creation of this extraordinary hand-knotted carpet. This project emerged from a shared respect for each other's craftsmanship and individuality. The synergy between collaborators is crucial, and in the case of Muller Van Severen, this connection was established seamlessly. Hannes and Fien, both versatile creatives, have captivated us with their vision and passion—an inspiring blend of art and design.

As longtime admirers of their work, we were particularly eager to witness how their artistic perspective would manifest in the realm of hand-knotted carpets. Our role in the development of this carpet was advisory and technical, where we gladly contributed our expertise in material selection and technical considerations.

The use of Pashmina wool, known for its softness, adds a luxurious touch to the carpet. Its natural whiteness enhances the contrast with the vibrant colored surfaces. The 'gradient' in the blue segment, crafted from natural silk, injects dynamism and vitality into the overall design. In contrast, the colored wool sections exhibit a matte finish, creating a more pronounced and harmonious tempering effect.

The deliberate alternation of these raw materials introduces a captivating interplay of textures and colors, altering the viewer's perception as light interacts with the matte wool and exquisite silk components. This collaborative venture has resulted in a truly exceptional piece that seamlessly merges technical precision with artistic vision.

We take pride in sharing this unique creation with you, reflecting the harmonious convergence of craftsmanship and creativity.

Care guide

Pashmina

Pashmina yarn is a luxurious and soft material derived from fine cashmere. It is renowned for its warmth, lightness, and intricate detailing, making it a sophisticated choice for high-end rugs. However, due to its delicate nature, pashmina is best suited for low-traffic or decorative areas.

Care Tips:

Gentle Vacuuming: Use a low-power suction vacuum to maintain the softness of the fibers.
Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mild detergent solution only if necessary, and test in a hidden area first.
Professional Cleaning: Engage professional rug cleaning services that specialize in delicate materials like pashmina.
Avoid Heavy Wear: Use in areas with minimal foot traffic to preserve the texture and longevity of the yarn.

General Recommendations

Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
Sun Protection: Minimize direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or UV-blocking window films.
Storage: If storing rugs, roll them with acid-free paper and keep them in a cool, dry place.

Care Tips:

Gentle Vacuuming: Use a low-power suction vacuum to maintain the softness of the fibers.
Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mild detergent solution only if necessary, and test in a hidden area first.
Professional Cleaning: Engage professional rug cleaning services that specialize in delicate materials like pashmina.
Avoid Heavy Wear: Use in areas with minimal foot traffic to preserve the texture and longevity of the yarn.

General Recommendations

Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
Sun Protection: Minimize direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or UV-blocking window films.
Storage: If storing rugs, roll them with acid-free paper and keep them in a cool, dry place.

Wool

Wool is one of the most durable and versatile materials for rugs. It is naturally stain-resistant, resilient, and warm, making it a popular choice for high-traffic areas.

Care Tips:

Regular Vacuuming: Use a suction-only vacuum to remove surface dirt. Avoid using the beater bar to prevent pulling fibers.
Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mixture of mild detergent and water for stubborn stains, but test in a small, inconspicuous area first.
Deep Cleaning: Professional cleaning every 3-5 years will keep the rug vibrant and fresh.
Rotation: Rotate the rug every 6-12 months to ensure even wear.

General Recommendations

Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
Sun Protection: Minimize direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or UV-blocking window films.
Storage: If storing rugs, roll them with acid-free paper and keep them in a cool, dry place.

Silk

Silk rugs are luxurious, soft, and exhibit a beautiful sheen, often making them statement pieces in a room. However, they are more delicate than wool.

Care Tips:

Gentle Cleaning: Avoid vacuuming with a high-powered vacuum. Use a handheld vacuum with a brushless attachment.
Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can damage the fibers.
Professional Cleaning: Always use professional cleaners specializing in silk rugs. Silk requires careful handling and should never be steam-cleaned.
Low-Traffic Areas: Place silk rugs in low-medium traffic or decorative areas to preserve their beauty.

General Recommendations

Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
