This is the beige and gray dual tone rug from the Degrade collection, a design by Patricia Urquiola in which the hand-knotting technique is essential to achieve a smooth transition from one color to another. It is a simple design, based solely on a color gradient. However, its subtle evolution from one tone to another, without striping or sharp differences, requires a delicate and thoroughly manual manufacturing process.

Product description

This piece works well on any type of flooring, but thanks to its coloring it is especially indicated on dark floors that could use a little brightness. The Degrade series also includes the Petrol-Wine model, which features a gradient that goes from wine tones to petroleum blue. Both are available in three sizes and are made entirely with 100% virgin wool.

Degrade, a rug from our hand-knotted collection

The hand-knotted technique is a manual rug-making method that allows for extremely detailed designs, precisely because rugs are made knot by knot. It is a very laborious technique and, consequently, it offers great flexibility. Bearing this peculiarity in mind, we at GAN create hand-knotted designs with both uniform patterns as well as with apparent randomness.
