Large Nobsa Rug by Sebastian Herkner

About the Item

Large Nobsa rug by Sebastian Herkner. Materials: 100% natural virgin wool. Technique: hand-woven in Colombia. Dimensions: W 324 x L 240 cm. Available in colors: grey/ grey/ cream, grey/ ochre/ cream, red/ ochre/ cream, blue/ mint/ cream, rose/ ochre, green/ naranja, grey/ brown, green/ ochre, grey/ beige. The Nobsa Rug, available in three sizes, is a graphic design by Sebastian Herkner, featuring gentle color-blocking to create a multi-dimensional effect. The designer was inspired by the patterns of the plastic bags in which Colombian farmers carry their potatoes. By combining colors of similar shade and different weaving techniques, an intriguing pattern is assembled that adds texture and interest to any room. The Nobsa collection also includes cushions with matching patterns. The rug is hand-woven and manufactured in a small family business based in the Colombian city of Nobsa. It takes three days to dye and prepares the wool fibers and an additional eight days to weave the rug. German designer Sebastian Herkner is a long-term collaborator of Ames and has visited Colombia multiple times to experience the country’s cities, nature and people first hand. He also visited many of the ateliers that Ames has partnered with to learn about the unique traditional crafts of Colombia's regions. A sought-after contemporary designer and recipient of many industry awards, he has worked with many international design brands, creating intriguing pieces that showcase his intuition for interesting material, color, and texture combinations.

  • Large Zenues Rug by Sebastian Herkner
    Located in Geneve, CH
    Large Zenues rug by Sebastian Herkner Materials: 100 % natural virgin wool. Technique: Hand-woven in Colombia. Dimensions: W 200 x L 300 cm Available in size small. The striking Zenues rug, a design by Sebastian Herkner, is inspired by old Colombian civilizations. When visiting the jewelry museum in Bogota, the designer discovered the gold works by the Zenu culture, which are decorated with so-called Narigeura symbols. These peoples lived in the Caribbean plains, through which the three large rivers Magdalena, Cauca, and San Jorge flow. Routinely they’d flood the fields so the Zenúes built a vast system of channels covering more than 500,000 hectares, controlling the flow of the water so that people and harvest would be protected. These landscapes inspired first the goldsmiths of the Zenúes – and now Sebastian Herkner. “These graphic objects have intrigued me for quite a while. Their symbolism is so narrative and expressive”, says the designer. The result: a subtle, yet striking, wool rug with various pile depths in a gentle crème white. Each rug is woven with natural virgin wool on traditional looms in ateliers in the Colombian Andes. The ‘channels’ of the monochrome rugs...
