About the Item
Large Par Raya rug by Sebastian Herkner
Materials: Fibres from Jipi palm leaves fibres.
Technique: Naturally dyed fibers. Hand-woven in Colombia.
Dimensions: W 310 x L 420 cm
Available in colors: cbrownish purple/ rust, flax/ kurkuma, black/ brownish purple, olive green/ dark flax, pink/ fresh green.
Subtle color combinations and a play with contrasts characterize the Par Raya Rug by Sebastian Herkner. The color range for the stripe pattern mirrors the earthy, warm tones the designer saw when he visited the Huila region in Colombia. The rug is knotted with fibers that come from the leaves of the fique plant, a wild-growing agave-like tree. The rug is available in five different color combinations and in three sizes.
Each rug is knotted in small ateliers in the Santander region. The yarns are made up of 28 individual fibers, which are prepared in an elaborate process that takes seven days, which includes washing the leaves and soaking them for 15 hours before they are dried and brushed by hand. These hardwearing, long fibers have even flame retardant qualities. Then it takes one experienced artesano 20 days to make the actual rug, setting the knot next to the knot on a vertical loom.
German designer Sebastian Herkner is a long-term collaborator of Ames and has visited Colombia multiple times to experience the country’s cities, nature and people first hand. He also visited many of the ateliers that Ames has partnered with to learn about the unique traditional crafts of Colombia's regions. A sought-after contemporary designer and recipient of many industry awards, he has worked with many international design brands, creating intriguing pieces that showcase his intuition for interesting material, color, and texture combinations.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
