Known as the company on the cutting edge of innovative custom rug design, RUG-ART introduces Escape, a hand-knotted, Indo-Tibetan rug inspired by the fluid designs and colors created by light reflecting on the narrow canals of Venice.
As the canals twist and turn through the streets of Venice, Italy, lyrical shapes and forms appear, producing continuous patterns in subtle hues. Designed by company principal, Sigal Sasson, Escape can be fully customized to any shape, size, color or combination of colors. Fabricated of wool, silk, hemp and matka silk, the lyrical Escape is a composition that will bring romance and poetry into your home.
Escape is made from pure Himalayan highland wool imported from Tibet in raw form. Rich in lanolin, this resilient wool has a natural luster. The wool is then hand washed, dried naturally in the sun, hand carded, spun and dyed, using Swiss dyes. Each rug is hand knotted in accordance with ancient Tibetan technique. Wool, silk, mohair and pashmina, as well as many other fibers are incorporated into designs to achieve texture and luxurious softness.
