Angelo

Hand in Hand, Angelo

1. Hand in Hand rug by Angelo. Made with recycled yarns, this design comes in two colour ways, one monochrome, the other with muted colour. The nature of using recycled materials means each rug will be an individual with a slightly different hue. The message behind this rug reads “This rug stands up for the idea that it is only ‘Hand in Hand’ that we can do something for the planet. Let’s cradle to cradle. Made of recycled yarns, this rug highlights the diversity of humanity. Each rug of this collection is by definition unique. Spread the message!”
