  • This artefact reproduces the fine festive saddlebag typical of tradition, faithfully using the ancient artisanal techniques and the typical decoration in black and white with polychrome floral bands.

  • In this large carpet in natural white Sardinian wool, silk and cotton, the tone-on-tone decoration asymmetrically forms sophisticated geometric solids with experimental pixel effects obtained by increasing and decreasing the density of the artisanal pibiones relief technique.

  • The design of the large carpet that uses traditional weaving techniques is inspired by the marine world, providing transparencies and vibrations to the entire compositional design.

  • This cotton and wool table runner is woven on a handloom, with a balanced composition of floral motifs on a geometric white and black field, featuring thin many-coloured regular stripes.

  • Balance and symmetry characterise the decoration of this wool rug featuring blue patterns on a natural background, with a flowered diamond central module that reinterprets the traditional motif in a stylised way.

Il settore

The traditional textile industry offers a remarkable production, resulting from the mediation between history and traditional knowledge and the needs of contemporary living. The craftsmen working on the island – almost all of them pursuing family traditions, having been trained since they were children in the use of hand looms – now offer a very high quality production, full of archaic memories but, at the same time, featuring a modern design, a reinterpretation of the past to give new life to it. Nowadays, the textiles made in Sardinia feature a distinctive Sardinian character, the core element of Sardinian craftsmanship, but they also offer new shapes, models and materials with a strong and modern personality.
