About the Item

Small par rug by Sebastian Herkner Materials: Fibres from Jipi palm leaves fibers. Technique: Naturally dyed fibers. Hand-woven in Colombia. Dimensions: W 160 x L 220 cm Available in colors: cacao melange/ brown melange, light grey melange/ brown melange, greenrose/ terracotta yellow melange, natural rose/ terracotta yellow melange, greenrose/ light grey melange. Earthy colors and subtle color-blocking characterize the Par Rug by Sebastian Herkner. The shades of the pattern mirror the earthy, warm tones the designer saw when he visited the Huila region in Colombia. The rug is knotted with fibers that come from the leaves of the fique plant, a wild-growing agave-like tree. The rug is available in five different color combinations and in three sizes. Each rug is knotted in small ateliers in the Santander region. The yarns are made up of 28 individual fibers, which are prepared in an elaborate process that takes seven days, which includes washing the leaves and soaking them for 15 hours before they are dried and brushed by hand. These hardwearing, long fibers have even flame retardant qualities. Then it takes one experienced artesano 20 days to make the actual rug, setting the knot next to the knot on a vertical loom. 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.

Small zenues rug by Sebastian Herkner Materials: 100 % natural virgin wool. Technique: Hand-woven in Colombia. Dimensions: W 160 x L 220 cm Available in size large. 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...
