Syracuse by Toulamonde Bochart

A warm expression of Sicilian heritage, Syracuse Tabac reveals the creative depth of Léa Zéroil for Toulemonde Bochart. This brown hand-tufted wool rug transposes Mediterranean ornaments into a creation where the richness of tobacco sublimates architectural finesse.

The composition is directly inspired by the arabesques that adorn the historic balconies of Syracuse. The motif, interpreted in a palette of browns with deep tobacco shades, reveals a new reading of these heritage elements. This delicate orchestration, enriched by meticulously worked watercolor effects, creates a visual depth where the warmth of the tones underlines the nobility of the interlacing.

The use of Gabbeh wool, enhanced by the hand tufting technique, gives this creation a remarkable texture. The precise density of 6.5 kg/m² allows for perfect definition of the patterns while preserving the natural richness of this exceptional wool. This selected material offers a unique depth to the brown tones and an exemplary resistance that guarantees the durability of the piece.
