Milan-preview : ”Natural Collection” by nanimarquina
The brand nanimarquina comes to MOST in Milan with its inventive collection of rugs, made of biodegradable materials. This new use of materials is revolutionary in the production process of carpets, employed by this innovative company for the last 25 years.
Nowadays, ”nanimarquina” carpets are made of natural fibres: nettle, afghan wool, silk and jute. The soft and unique texture of this new ”Natural Collection’, comes from the fact that fibres are manually twisted together into continuous threads.
TLmag salutes this new ”green” direction taken by Nanimarquina and invites you to watch this video, featuring Nani Marquina herself, for a better understanding of this brand’s values.
