Christopher Farr Bauhaus Runner Plate 180: A Work of Art by Gunta Stölzl
Celebrate the centenary of the Bauhaus with the exclusive Christopher Farr Bauhaus Runner, inspired by the visionary design of Gunta Stölzl. As a pioneer and the first female master of the Bauhaus, Stölzl significantly shaped the world of hand weaving. This hand-tufted runner revives her 1920s design, based on the original drawing of a wall hanging that is now a treasured private collector's item.
Produced in close collaboration with Stölzl's daughters, Yael Aloni and Monika Stadler, the runner embodies both tradition and modernity. Limited to just 150 copies, this Bauhaus runner will quickly become a sought-after collector's item.
Stölzl's impressive career began in 1919 at the Bauhaus in Weimar. Her collaboration with Marcel Breuer led to iconic textiles that are still seen on his furniture designs today. After significant stages in Krefeld and Zurich, she returned to the Bauhaus in 1925 before emigrating to Switzerland in 1931. As an advocate of modern textile design, Stölzl left her unmistakable mark on design history.
Acquire a piece of history with this unique runner, embodying the essence of the Bauhaus and Gunta Stölzl's unparalleled talent. A must-have for every design enthusiast and historian.
Hand-tufted wool rugs are not only luxurious and aesthetically pleasing additions to any room, but they are also durable and long-lasting if properly cared for. Here are some tips and guidelines to ensure your hand-tufted wool rug stays in top condition for a long time:
-
Regular Vacuuming: Vacuuming your wool rug at least once a week helps remove dust, dirt, and allergens. When vacuuming, avoid using a rotating brush, as it can damage the fibers.
-
Stain Removal: In case of spills, act quickly. Blot the stain immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can worsen the stain. For stubborn stains, a specialized wool cleaner or a mild soap solution may be helpful.
-
Rotate the Rug: To ensure even wear, you should rotate the rug every few months, especially if it is in an area exposed to a lot of sunlight or foot traffic.
-
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Direct sunlight can fade the colors of your wool rug. Consider placing the rug in a way that it is not constantly exposed to sunlight, or use curtains or blinds to filter the light.
-
Professional Cleaning: Depending on the use and specific conditions of your home, it may be advisable to have your hand-tufted wool rug professionally cleaned every 1-2 years.
-
Moth Prevention: Wool rugs can attract moths. To prevent this, vacuum regularly underneath the rug and periodically check it for signs of moth infestation.
-
Storage: If you need to store your rug for a longer period, roll it (instead of folding it) and store it in a cool, dry place. Use moth repellents and check the rug regularly.
A hand-tufted wool rug is an investment in beauty and quality. With proper care, it can last for many years, if not decades, while always maintaining an attractive appearance.
