Wave is a kilim designed for Splot by Zofia Strumillo, whose design work draws on the heritage of Polish folk culture as well as on science and technology.
The kilim refers to the foundations of quantum physics and the wave-like behavior of matter, and also to the striped folk textiles known as ‘pasiak’. It is worked in a color scheme of sea greens and navy blues. The diamond pattern, deconstructed in Zofia Strumillo’s characteristic way, is woven ‘with a loop’, giving the fabric a ripple effect that makes it a three-dimensional experience.
The art of kilim weaving has long been part of Polish tradition and aesthetics, and since the early 1900s Poland has embraced the kilim as a medium for contemporary design and artistic expression rather than conventional, repetitive patterns.
Splot’s kilims are handcrafted with two weaving centers of distinctive heritage. This one is woven in Bobowa, near Kraków, where weaving dates back more than 70 years, with a dense, refined texture on a linen warp. The hand-spun wool’s soft bouclé texture adds subtle irregularity and depth.
When ordering, please specify fringes on both sides, one side or none, and hanging fixtures for vertical or horizontal hanging, or none.
