SCARLET POIS is a carpet designed by Draga&Aurel.‎

Completely hand-knotted rug, carried out with one of the finest wools in the world, hand-dyed with the so-called “pot-dyeing” technique; it deals with an art that carries on a age-long tradition.‎ Since the execution of the drawing is difficult, the weavers have to use “talim”, a sort of intoned code, where any given note coincides with a knot and prevents any possible interpretation mistake on the loom.‎ The finishing process is very elaborate: after the first shave and the handwash, every single rug is handled in order to create a unique product: a skilled craftsman works on the surface with scissors, wearing out on purpose some sections of the rug, according to an expert’s instructions.‎ The side borders are carried out with the specific style of an age-old rug and selvedges are woven creating a “vintage” effect.‎
