EXPLORING EDEN — Fall 2025

Journal Entry: 09/13/25

 
 
 

The Eden Rug Collection began as a kind of quiet inquiry. What does it mean to tap into the harmony between human hands, the natural world and the timeless stories spun in between. ? What can be revealed when we allow nature, craft, and story to speak in tandem?

 
 
 
 

Explore Eden and step into a world where nature meets the sublime. Weaving together the softness of cashmere, the luster of silk, and the strength of wool we invite you into the tactile landscapes of our Eden Rug Collection. Offered in four organic shapes—circle, cloud, leaf, and rectangle—each piece evokes a quiet mysticism rooted in history and grounded in nature.

The Eden Rug Collection is a meditation on origins—of materials, of myth, and of making. Crafted from cashmere, silk, and wool, each rug draws from natural fibers that have accompanied humanity for millennia.

Silk, once carried along ancient trade routes and prized for its luminous strength, has long symbolized refinement and mystery. Its journey begins in the hush of a delicately spun silkworm cocoon, before being transformed by human hands into something radiant. Wool and cashmere, by contrast, speak to a history of earthbound tending—of shepherding, stewardship, and the deep rhythms of pastoral life. Together, these fibers are more than materials; they are inheritances, shaped by centuries of labor, care, and tradition.

In our Eden Rug Collection, we return to something essential: the harmony between human hands and the natural world, and the timeless stories spun in between. Whether adorned with the eye motif or left in contemplative simplicity, each rug is created by hand in an age old tradition that we see as a kind of soft monument to storied materials intimately tied to the land.
