Mano I

Legami Collection
Tai Ping

The Legami by Elena Salmistraro collection takes inspiration from the human hand, both as a graphic and conceptual theme, which is recognised universally as a symbol of human connection and exchange. Using stylised graphics that outline sinuous and complex shapes, Elena Salmistraro has developed the concept in a series of rugs, one for each finger - circular for the thumb, and rectangular for the forefinger, middle, ring and little fingers - plus a final carpet, dedicated to the hand itself, bearing an irregular shape whose edges follow the lines of the motifs.

Tai Ping’s skilled craftsmen, in close collaboration with the designer, have transformed the original designs into a series of high quality carpets thanks to their unparalleled expertise in hand-tufting.
