Aalto rugs  

Got an answer from Artek. It was custom made for the house. 🙁

I can't tell what type of weave it is---pile? Or a flat-weave killim type? Looks thicker than a killim but it's hard to say from that one photo.

Anyway, you can get a custom killim made, and that's a very simple design to copy. You could probably get a pile carpet made to order too, but that would cost more, I think. I have no idea what a custom killim would cost, for that matter. But maybe it's worth looking into?

Hi DrPoulet,

thank you for posting the picture of the villa.

The carpet is really nice, quite bad they don't sell it. Imagine in light blue or cobalt, I would have tought about it.

I recently bumped, thanks to some suggestions on this forum, to the carpet's producer Francisco Cumella, and they make really nice stuff. I got really interested in their carpet "bloom" but my wife pointed out that it might be difficult to clean.

Cheers,

Ernest.

It is high pile.

Yes, I am sure I can have it custom made. Will look for a cooperative in Morocco for this but I am pretty afraid it won't be cheap!

Please keep up posted with prices and eventually if you order it.

Thank you

Ernest
