Materials and making

Art de Vivre lists its rugs in silk, wool, cashmere and alpaca, and in blends such as silk and wool or silk and cashmere. Its product listings give India and Nepal as the countries of origin. Many pieces are made to order rather than held in stock.

Blanc de Blancs

Custom and bespoke rugs

Art de Vivre says designer interiors often need custom or bespoke pieces, and offers three routes:

• Monochrome rugs: any monochrome rug from the collection, made in the size required.
• Customised collection rugs: a change of colour, material or shape for any rug in the catalogue.
• Bespoke rugs: a new rug made to the client's own design, or created from scratch with the brand's design studio.

The brand's process runs from choosing a model or inviting its designer, through colour and size, to approval of a sketch and a sample before the rug is made.

Custom rugs

Who Art de Vivre suits

Living rooms, bedrooms and hospitality interiors where the rug is part of the design, made to the room's size and shape, in natural fibres and soft, sculpted textures.
