Sjöborre handtufted - Blue / Grey
Frida Nilsson
I am an illustrator and a graphic designer with a big interest in colour and design. Since 2010, I have my own company called Illustraform and combine freelancing and working with my own projects within illustration and design. My wish is to broaden my mind and also work with interior decoration products such as designing patterns and motives for textiles and wall paper. And, of course, carpets.
Sjöborre handtufted
“Sjöborre”(“Sea urchin”) is a carpet totally based on round forms, the outer edge as well as the smaller circles and the centre. The circles are however never strictly geometrical, and the distance between them varies as I wanted to obtain a sense of life and movement. The interaction between playfulness and strict forms is at the core, and I was inspired by objects I found on the beach.
Specifications
Sjöborre handtufted - Blue / Grey carpet from India.
Handtufted carpets are made by hand using high quality raw materials, but rather than having knots that need to be tied, a special ”tufting gun” is used to push loops of yarn through a scrim (pre-woven backing). The last stage in the production is trimming the pile to the desired length, thereby exposing the thread ends for a softer pile.
This technique allows for a quick and effective process and gives the weaver more freedom and range to create detailed patterns and shapes otherwise restricted in handknotted carpets. The end result is a long lasting high quality carpet at an affordable price.
Durable Wool 
Wool is a natural textile fibre and one of the most sought after materials for rug making. Wool rugs are highly durable and perfectly capable of resisting wear and tear of every day use. Wool has a naturally dirt-repelling effect and is easy to keep clean. It is also flame resistant and characteristically retains it’s shape so that the pile of the rug always rises.

High quality and speedy delivery
Really beautiful, high quality carpet, and can't believe, how quickly it got delivered. Makes me want to order more, although I definitely don't need any more.. There is some sort of slightly darker band going along one end of the rug, as if there has been a sello-tape stuck there, but you can't see it too well and I think it will blend in over time.

I have bought many rugs from Carpet Vista and I am always happy with my purchase. Excellent quality, price and delivery. I have not purchased a rug from any other company in years. Looking forward to my next purchase *****

A lot of room for improvement!
I give a negative point for the following reasons: 1- very poor quality packaging material, which was open on two corners and worn off at the bottom making the carpet back visible (I can send the photos, if needed). 2- folding the carpet on the wrong side 3- not sending a printed Certificate of Authenticity 4- posting photoshopped photo’s of the carpet giving it a vintage/antique look, which is different than the reality of the carpet. 5- one important character of a Persian carpet which plays a key role on its value is its axial symmetry along the long and short axes. The length of this carpet is 340,5cm on the one side and 334cm on the other side meaning that the carpet is not symmetrical! To avoid misleading the customer, these figures have to be reported in the descriptions of the carpet, honestly. 6- There were signs of repair at some points, but the carpet still rendered signs of wear at some other points which require immediate attention. These were not reported in the description, either. luckily, I managed to pack this beautiful peace of art and return it.

The ordered carpet is perfect. The specification in page is written well and the original is the same ( or better) as written.

Eveything went well. To have a more reallistic idea of the carpets you buy, it would be helpful to add movies. Shipping and returning was very quick and without issues.

The colors in the carpet will be perceived differently depending on the angle you view it from.
