Become enchanted with the Mirage Collection by Couristan. Inspired by unique Transitional designs, the combination of deep, rich colors and intricate patterns creates a rug of exceptional beauty and brilliance. While most rugs are woven from top to bottom, fringe to fringe, Mirage rugs are “cross-woven” or woven sideways, on Wilton looms. This technique allows for the use of up to 24 colors creating ultra fine detail and a beautiful “abrash” effect. These subtle color variations commonly found in handmade rugs are a direct result of cross-weaving. Mirage’s lush fringe is not added or sewn on, but is actually a continuation of the strong backing yarn of the rug, subsequently, all Mirage rugs are hand finished. A unique drop stitch effect and multi-point weaving add to the texture and dense pile that is characteristic of this 100% New Zealand semi-worsted wool area rug collection. Let the mystique of the Mirage Collection transform everyday rooms into magical places.
