THE COLLECTION Time and authenticity captured in tapestry art. Inspired by the beautiful decorations in the Alhambra palace, the Terai savannas of Nepal and Hindu carvings, the Etnica collection oozes history and culture. The skilfully crafted wool patterns lend these carpets a refined and vibrant touch. The collection features hand-knotted wool carpets with three different designs.
