Heddle, Runner Rug, Dogwood, 66 x 183 cm

Named from an integral element of the loom on which they were developed, the Chilewich Heddle Floormats are easy-to-clean, extremely durable and suitable for indoor/outdoor use. On a loom, the yarns of each warp thread are threaded through the eye of a heddle, using a technique similar to the threading of a sewing needle.
To create the weave structure of the Chilewich Heddle Floormat, the heddles were lowered and lifted in specific sequences that were inspired by Bauhaus textiles. The result is a weighty, flat-woven field composed of subtle stripes and graphic floating yarns.
