Tessera Outcropped Medium wool rug

Tessera Outcropped Medium is a handwoven wool rug from the Franco-Italian brand cc-tapis. The rug is designed by George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg and belongs to the Tessera collection, where historical references to Roman and Byzantine mosaics are reinterpreted in a contemporary textile format.

The name refers to tesserae – the small stones, glass pieces, or ceramic fragments historically used in ancient mosaics. In this collection, their irregular patterns are translated into geometric compositions with varied rhythm, created using traditional dhurrie weaving techniques in India.

The rug is made from wool and handwoven with a low, flat structure. The design is defined by both repetition and variation, where each section acts as a unit within a larger whole. Tessera Outcropped Medium is suitable for dry indoor environments and is intended for interiors where craftsmanship, historical references, and modern design exist in harmonious balance.
