Berbere Rug

The hallmark of the Berbère rug is the complex manual technique used to work the wool, which recalls the traditional processes used for early-20th-century Berber Moroccan rugs. Each rug is spun and knotted entirely by hand on traditional vertical looms, and then finished with sophisticated handicraft techniques that result in unique pieces with their own identity. Skilled craftsmen scissor the surface of the pile to create the irregularities that distinguish each rug, then proceed with the characteristic patterns and side fringes woven one by one in the style of ancient Berber rugs. The black and white versions of the rug are made from undyed wool, while the other colours are produced using vegetable dyes.

Materials

Structure: The finishing process is very elaborate: after the first shave and the handwash, every single rug is treated in order to create a unique product; a skilled craftsman works on the surface with scissors in order to give it the typical irregularities of the original rugs. On one side a selvedge is created, matching the design pattern and decorated with wool stitching. On the other side the fringes are woven one by one in the style of old Berber rugs.
Covering / Coating: The b/w version is made using non-dyed wools while the other versions involve the use of vegetable dyes

Baxter

Launched in Italy on January 1990, Baxter is the combination of experience and passion, a sense for business, a desire not to follow the rules, and the spirit and feeling evoked by the Made in Italy philosophy. Describing Baxter as “the story of encounters, ideas, but above all of people”, founders Luigi Bestetti and his nephew Paolo Bestetti began their journey towards the contemporary by pursuing "the freest expressiveness”.
