Archer

about the collection

Conceived from a desire – and fueled by current events – the Archer Collection acts as protective talismans. 7 individual designs whose roots lie in semiotics and cultural icons, with a combination of natural materials and artisanal craftsmanship. 

“I’m a Saggitarius and to me, the arrow stands for the values or energies - think peace, or success, or love - that we throw into our lives. The arrows are symbols of how we unleash these energies, watch them gain momentum and experience where they end up pointing.”

- Taher Asad-Bakhtiari

Taher Asad-Bakhtiari has always been fascinated by arrows and their symbolic meaning transferred from ancient cultures. Arrows don’t just point in a particular direction, they are considered a symbol of power, of looking forward and remaining true to oneself.

Archer is the first collection entirely dedicated to one typology of rug: the runner. Rugs which can be used for corridors, staircases, narrow spaces or freely in any interior. Entirely hand-knotted and produced in the cc-tapis Atelier in Nepal, each piece is made with Himalayan wool, pure silk, lurex and mohair.
