Description
The area of Gansu in China is home to the Zhangye Danxia Landform Geological Park, an area of natural beauty esteemed for its colourful, striped mountains. Formed of layers upon layers of minerals and rocks, the movement of tectonic plates unsettle this landscape to magnificent effect. The unique form of the Gamu rug is directly inspired by the singularity of this landscape and this piece stands as a wonderful homage to the brilliance of the natural world.
It is important that we start with the silhouette of this piece. Crafted into an arched form, the Gamu rug offers itself as a window into another world. Within this visual field, two mountain-like forms adorn the surface of the rug in brilliantly warm red and orange colours that dazzle in their stark simplicity. The natural forms and muted colour palette of this piece provide comfort in the ease they offer the visual field, whilst adding a welcome pop of colour to any modern living space. Going deeper into the piece, the hand-tufted surfaces made from bamboo offer themselves as an extremely soft and almost silk-like surface that is tactile in its beauty. Unique in its irregular form, almost like a painting to decor your floor, let yourself be guided to the mountains by this stunning piece.
