A traditional Indian flat-weave Dhurrie rug, Tres captivates with elemental and timeless design and its’ uniqueness lies in the production of three independent parts in which different fibres predominate. The proportion and combination of wool, felt, and cotton generate changes in tone and irregularities in the weave, bringing its’ earthy quality and pattern to life.

Showcased and available to order across Cult showrooms nationally, the nanimarquina collection is one with substance; harmoniously combining authentic design with thoughtful artisanship and ultimately making tradition contemporary.
