Valparaise

The elegant and sinuous lines designed by René Gruau for Fede Cheti represent a modern, floral motif, inspired by traditional Japanese prints. The Valparaise rug, available in two color variations – white and yellow – is the result of the elaboration of the Artist’s beloved subjects and their translation into a refined and unmistakable artifact.
