I work as a painter and mosaicist in Venice. I am interested in every possible expression of art, from calligraphy to illustrations for children, from origami to prints on fabric. I also create clothes, hats, bags, knitting and embroidery. I find inspiration in the natural and in the animal worlds which allow me to enjoy using different colors, materials and supports.
Zebra 2018
I've always thought that the animal that I like most is the zebra, because it is very elegant and indomitable. For this work I imagined a detail of a herd of zebras galloping in their natural environment, silhouetted against the yellow sunset sky. The movement of their moving bodies creates a magical effect of lines, the touch of blue on the muzzle gives a feeling of "freshness" and the eye, which looks sideways, arouses calm in the observer.
Specifications
Zebra 2018 Rug - Yellow carpet from India.
Handtufted carpets are made by hand using high quality raw materials, but rather than having knots that need to be tied, a special ”tufting gun” is used to push loops of yarn through a scrim (pre-woven backing). The last stage in the production is trimming the pile to the desired length, thereby exposing the thread ends for a softer pile.
This technique allows for a quick and effective process and gives the weaver more freedom and range to create detailed patterns and shapes otherwise restricted in handknotted carpets. The end result is a long lasting high quality carpet at an affordable price.
This rug sheds, which is normal and a result of the manufacturing process, as small surplus fibres are released during production. With proper care, this shedding will naturally decrease. To minimize excess shedding, it's recommended to regularly hoover with a recessed brush head and to hoover in the direction of the pile.
Durable Wool 
Wool is a natural textile fibre and one of the most sought after materials for rug making. Wool rugs are highly durable and perfectly capable of resisting wear and tear of every day use. Wool has a naturally dirt-repelling effect and is easy to keep clean. It is also flame resistant and characteristically retains it’s shape so that the pile of the rug always rises.

I was able to find a lovely carpet that matches the style of my living room, and moreover is sturdy, easy to maintain and washable. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the products. The carpet came very neatly and carefully packaged, delivery was amazingly fast, overall a very smooth experience. I will warmly recommend Rugvista/Carpetvista to anyone looking for a good carpet.

Excellent Service and Products
I wanted to reserve a carpet as I was abroad when I made my choice and there was only 1 left. I was able to telephone and speak to a very helpful lady who arranged for the carpet to be delivered 2 days after my return 3 weeks later. A week later, I chose another one with a 10% further discount for buying again and that arrived promptly also after another discussion with another helpful lady. I now have 2 fabulous rugs at a very decent price. Yes, the 'Handloom Fringe' carpet is shedding where one sits but I well remember a fitted carpet shedding for 6 months prior to stopping. So I hope it will stop eventually. DPD deliver promptly.

The colors in the carpet will be perceived differently depending on the angle you view it from.
