A glance over History
Rug, as ancient as mankind itself, has at all times been
bound to its evolution, as witnessed by its weaves, knots,
colours, symbols and designs.
Before they invented textiles, men used animal hides to
protect themselves from the cold (these skins were used as
clothes, floor coverings and hangings meant to cut drafts).
As time went by, the planet warmed up and that change brought
about the germination of a flora which in no time enabled
men to grow cotton and linen. Imitating the intertwined tree
branches, they wove the threads gathered from these plants,
and thus manufactured textiles.
