  • Rhombus-shaped modules and intertwined geometric patterns distinctive of the traditional iconography of the village of Aggius are woven into the delicate colours of this carpet in naturally-dyed Sardinian wool.

  • The motif of this carpet is a new stylised interpretation of the traditional flame design, featuring original contrasts. Woven on a vertical handloom, crafted with the wicker technique, typical of the whole production of this workshop, it features different sizes and colours.

  • These elegant linen cushions have original decorative compositions designed by this weaver using the loom according to the pibiones relief technique and drawn cloth effects in fine chromatic combinations.

  • This cotton and Sardinia wool carpet features a balanced wide geometrical decoration with musk green weaves on a neutral field, and purple parallel stripes.

  • Campiture di colori a contrasto in vuoti e pieni su struttura geometrica ben definita suggeriscono richiami artistici lontani dalla tradizione locale, resa invece esplicita dalla fedele riproduzione dell'elegante motivo is arrampus e della tecnica di manifattura a pibiones.

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.
