Pluto Carpet, Hand Knotted, Wool and Banana Silk, Studio Wieki Somers
About the Item
Wieki Somers, being fascinated by a photo taken aboard the New Horizons spaceship, decided, together with Dylan van den Berg, to recreate with wool an extraordinary image of solar eclipse caused by Pluto, in the carpet called, precisely, “Pluto".
With this project we return to the universal theme par excellence, the infinite space that surrounds us.
Pluto carpet is hand knotted in wool and banana silk, 220 x 300 cm, 120 knots, pile height 5 mm.

Nodus Rug
Nodus Project
Nodus is a craft workshop with a cultural plan: the oldest traditions and knowledge in the art of carpet design are reinterpreted using the vision of the most innovating Designers and Architects, producing only unique pieces, promoting through events and publications in order to spread the knowledge to all about the new shapes and forms of a piece that has accompanied man since antiquity. Craftsmanship: Nodus has selected from the best producers in six countries of the world (Nepal, Pakistan, India, Turkmenistan, China and Turkey) visiting them one by one, verifying materials, techniques, expert craftsmen and ethical production. Each carpet from Nodus will be a unique piece, entirely made by hand, even including the packaging. The result is a collection of 60 carpets that outlines a new horizon of shapes and colours, a collection that unhinges borders and goes beyond the hand of reason.
The spirit of the carpets is captured in dynamic and organic forms, like putting together a puzzle, assumes irregular profiles or takes inspiration from contemporary and everyday products such as fabrics, tablecloths, books and maps.
All the rules are torn up, except one: The hand weaving, knot by knot.
Whether you purchase or only appreciate the quality of a piece from Nodus, you can be assured that the carpet has been produced with the utmost respect, first and foremost for human rights, and the right to good working conditions and fair compensation.
carpet is available in different colours and sizes
