The zebra in particular appeared on the floors of the period's most ambitious rooms, where the exotic reference met the decade's appetite for bold graphic geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral auction houses — among them \u003cstrong\u003eSotheby's London\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eLyon \u0026amp; Turnbull\u003c\/strong\u003e in Glasgow — have attributed the 1920s designs of this type to the English architect \u003cstrong\u003eOliver Hill\u003c\/strong\u003e (1887–1968), who is said to have had such rugs produced in \u003cstrong\u003eTientsin\u003c\/strong\u003e in northern China for \u003cstrong\u003eNichols of London\u003c\/strong\u003e. We should be clear about the status of that attribution: we have not been able to find documentary proof of it.

The bundles are staggered so that the eye keeps moving and no single point dominates. There is \u003cstrong\u003eno border\u003c\/strong\u003e — the pattern runs to all four edges, and the corners are lightly rounded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe contrast is the point of this version: \u003cstrong\u003eanthracite black on a grey-white ivory ground\u003c\/strong\u003e, drawn sharply rather than softened. Because the pile is bamboo silk, the ivory shifts with the light — luminous and almost white where the light falls directly, cooler and greyer at an angle — while the black stays matte and holds the drawing steady.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003eMaterial and Knotting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pile is \u003cstrong\u003ebamboo silk\u003c\/strong\u003e — the established trade name for a lustrous fibre produced from bamboo cellulose by the viscose process. In fibre terms it is \u003cstrong\u003eviscose\u003c\/strong\u003e, a regenerated cellulose, and it is declared as such in the specifications below. What it brings is the sheen: a pronounced, silk-like reflection that gives a two-colour rug the depth it would otherwise lack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rug is hand-knotted in India in the \u003cstrong\u003ePersian knot\u003c\/strong\u003e at approximately \u003cstrong\u003e100 knots per square inch\u003c\/strong\u003e. A square inch measures 2.54 × 2.54 cm; at 100 knots per inch² that corresponds to roughly \u003cstrong\u003e157,000 knots per square metre\u003c\/strong\u003e — the conversion factor from inch² to m² is 1,550.

0;\"\u003eBamboo silk is the trade name for a fibre spun from bamboo cellulose by the viscose process. It is not silk in the fibre sense — it is viscose, a regenerated cellulose — and it is declared as viscose in the specifications. Its appeal is optical: a strong, silk-like lustre and a very soft hand, at a fraction of the cost of true silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:12px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;\"\u003eHow is knot density measured?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:10px 0 0;\"\u003eIn this case per square inch — an area of 2.54 × 2.54 cm. At 100 knots per square inch the density comes to roughly 157,000 knots per square metre; the conversion factor from inch² to m² is 1,550. The figure matters here because a fine, evenly drawn zebra stripe needs enough knots per row to keep its edge from stepping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:12px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600;\"\u003eHow should this rug be cleaned?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:10px 0 0;\"\u003eVacuum regularly at reduced power, without a beater bar, in the direction of the pile. Viscose is sensitive to moisture, so blot spills immediately with a dry cloth and never rub or soak.
