Unique Design and Shape

Polar Belly radiates with concentric energy, its circular form echoing fractal geometry and cosmic rhythms. With 24 vivid shades and finely sculpted textures, it draws the eye inward while transforming the floor into a dynamic artwork.

Size: 305 x 305 cm (10 x 10 ft)

Custom handmade to order

Each rug is hand tufted in the softest New Zealand wool and sculpted at varying pile heights for a striking three-dimensional effect. We create your rug in the size you prefer, and custom colourways may be possible.

Fractal Rug Designs

The design originates from intricate explorations of fractal-generating software. Hours of digital experimentation transform numerical formulas into organic, flowing compositions that balance form and colour.

True handcraft

Every piece is handmade by skilled artisans in certified fair-trade workshops. Throughout the process, you will receive production images so you can see your rug come to life step by step.

Order

This design is limited to a numbered edition of 10 rugs worldwide. Production time is approximately 14 weeks. For sustainability and full bespoke service, each rug is made to order.

Please note: Sizes may vary within a 3% margin due to the handmade process and natural materials.
