Farfalle e losanghe

The lightness of these colorful butterflies is made even more striking by their contrast with the rigorous black-and-white geometry of the diamond pattern. Both motifs have long been part of the visual vocabulary of Fornasetti, already appearing in the 1950s on porcelain and decorative objects. It is Barnaba Fornasetti, however, who brings them together for the first time into a single, almost hypnotic composition—creating a scene that feels as though it has emerged from the collection of an entomologist. 
Proudly made by hand in India, this 100% wool rug is crafted using the dhurrie technique on a horizontal loom, where colored wefts are manually interlaced into the warp to form a flat, graphic surface. Hand embroidery is then applied as an additional layer, delicately highlighting the butterflies so they appear to rest lightly atop the geometric ground, enhancing their sense of movement and contrast. Conceived as both a floor piece and a wall hanging, the rug becomes a versatile collectible object.
