This is the Red rug from our Chimos collection, a design inspired by the shape and colours of the popular fruit sweets, known by this name in Spain and as Life Savers in other parts of the world. Its design bears the signature of the unmistakable style of José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales, who combines his penchant for sobriety with brilliant proposals of a playful nature for which he draws inspiration from everyday objects and pop culture items, transferring them to both pieces of furniture and rugs.

Product description

The Red de Chimos rug is made using the Hand Tufted technique, which creates the differences in relief that make the coloured discs, which represent the sweets, have a greater volume, protruding from the base and adopting three dimensions. The combination of a declined palette of random reddish tones, in the case of this model, together with these differences in volume, which also present two different textures, give the rug a powerful expressive force. The rug is available in two sizes, 170x240 cm and 200x300 cm, and there is also another version in various shades of green.

José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales

José Antonio Gandía-Blasco Canales was born in Ontinyent, Valencia. After studying law at the Valencia University, he joined the family business GANDIA BLASCO, a blanket manufacturer.

After travelling throughout Spain as a business agent, he began to take on responsibilities in the company. With the help of Marisa Gallén and Sandra Figuerola, designers, Gandía Blasco reshaped the image of the company. The current logo was created, the silhouette of a graceful kitten, as well as the first reversible design carpet collection, which later received the IMPIVA Award 1990 for innovation.
