Nanimarquina has treated the rug as a contemporary design product since the brand was founded by Nani Marquina in 1987. Its collection brings together colour, texture and traditional making techniques through collaborations with designers and artists.
What distinguishes a Nanimarquina rug?
The range gives construction and material as much importance as pattern. Hand-knotting, hand-tufting, hand-looming and other techniques create different surfaces and levels of detail. Variations associated with hand production are part of the individual character of many designs.
Which fibre should you choose?
Wool offers warmth, resilience and a soft natural surface. Other collections use fibres selected for a particular texture or application, including outdoor designs. Check the exact composition, backing and care instructions rather than making assumptions from appearance.
How do pile and texture affect use?
A flat or low surface is easier beneath moving dining chairs and doors. A deeper or more dimensional rug can bring comfort to a living room or bedroom but may need greater clearance and different cleaning. Samples are especially useful when texture is central to the design.
How should colour be chosen?
View the rug alongside flooring and upholstery in both daylight and evening light. A rug occupies a large visual area, so small colour differences matter. Complex or varied surfaces may appear quieter from across the room than they do in a close sample.
What size should you order?
Plan the furniture arrangement first. In a living room, the rug should connect the seating; around a dining table, it should remain beneath the chairs when they are pulled out. Mark the proposed dimensions on the floor before choosing a standard or custom size.
Can Nanimarquina rugs be used outdoors?
Only collections explicitly specified for outdoor use should be placed outside. Follow the maker’s guidance on exposure, cleaning, drying and storage. An outdoor designation does not remove the need for care.
How should the rug be maintained?
Use the care instructions supplied for the exact construction and fibre. Vacuum settings, stain treatment and professional cleaning can differ. A compatible underlay can reduce movement and wear where recommended.
