EMILY’S HOUSE OPEN DAY SUCCESS, 9TH MAY 2024

OPEN DAY SUCCESS!

A big thank you to everyone who attended our Open Day! It was a successful event and a wonderful chance to discover the perfect rug for your next project or add those finishing touches to your room with some beautiful textures.

Art comes in so many forms! For me the Mid-century Moroccan rugs are a real example of an often hugely undervalued form of art. The artistry of Moroccan rugs lies in the meticulous attention to detail and the craftsmanship that goes into creating each piece. They are not just floor coverings but an authentic expression of a dynamic tradition. So when I am in my shop, surrounded by all these beautiful rugs, I feel more like being in an art gallery!
