Ragoum Collection
Those woven benches are a modern interpretation of the surroundings of desert environment. I used a meaningful motifs such: horse tooth, eyelashes, earrings and more. A traditional Tribe pattern, in a design that combined natural wood with goat hair, sheep wool and jute. The technique inspired by “ragoum” is a weft face design technique, the warp is completely hidden by the weft yarn. Ragoum is a formed by binding or wrapping warp threads togather, the yarns are always brightly coloured. The weaver usually use this technique to add joy in her weaving and to break the monotony in her weaving.
