Backstitch Composition Rug

<p>Learning about embroidery – GAN’s incredible craft and strength – Raw-Edges found themselves drawn to the aesthetics on its reverse side. The ‘backstitch’ has an unintentional hidden beauty to it, that one might so easily miss. Their aim was to understand the language of this ‘random’ backstitch and develop it into their rug collection. Focusing on colour combinations, the rhythm of patterns, the thickness of the yarns, tactility and craftsmanship, they also emphasise handmade work over working on the loom and the handmade embroideries. The technique used to make this rug is Kilim and embroidery and due to the handmade nature of the GAN product, slight variations in size, colour, finish are normal. </p>
