Licheni

This carpet is part of the Pietra collection designed by Paulina Herrera, inspired by the large granite massifs that emerge on the Sardinian coasts protecting them from waves and wind. To create this collection, in addition to wool, other yarns such as silk and linen have been used to recreate the characteristic texture of these stones, eroded by salt and sculpted by the wind, rough and almost sharp, but also soft thanks to the lichens that grow on the surface.
