Tempo Rugs

Agnella's Tempo Natural collection is woven using British undyed wool, by removing the dying processes we are able to save on energy and water making it a more enviromentally friendly processes. The rugs have a cut pile finish giving them a soft and luxious feel.   This magnificent pattern of scrolling acanthus leaves is based on a fragment of wallpaper dating from about 1705 in the V&A collection. The main incentive for the introduction of paper to decorate walls was as an inexpensive alternative to tapestry, velvets and brocades. The floral design is a passable imitation of its more expensive rival of damask fabric.
