Cc tapis - Bliss Ultimate gold carpet
The Bliss Collection is characterized by a sculptural and three-dimensional effect that was initially inspired by a sample that Mae Engelgeer created where she was experimenting with rounded and curved shapes. This happened after a period of using straight lines and feeling captured by them, Mae felt the need to use bold shapes again.
Keeping in mind the playfulness of the Memphis movement and mixing elements such as patterns and shapes with different production techniques and give life to the carpets. The Ultimate Bliss, creates a sophisticated textile landscape with a variety of pile heights created in Himalayan wool and pure silk. A design so dense that you can, as the designer says, "get lost in bliss".
A collection that offers different production techniques from hand-knotted to hand-woven.
