Explore the Telares Collection by Nanimarquina: Artistic Rugs for Your Home
Paying Tribute to the Art of Weaving
Rugs are much more than mere floor coverings. They are works of art that capture the essence of craftsmanship and innovation. The Telares Collection by Nanimarquina is the result of an unrelenting quest for new approaches offered by the loom. Inspired by the creative process of artisan weavers, this collection expresses a profound expressiveness with irregularities that make it truly unique.
We have combined techniques used in traditional Kilims and Dhurries to create a series of rugs that play with textures and rhythm through the variation and pressure of fibers. Changes in the pattern, resulting from the tension applied between the weft and the warp, give the rug a nuanced appearance, evoking the most primal manual work: the artisan's persistent process of trial and error from which magical results emerge.
Creating the Telares required a lot of experimentation and prototyping to achieve the desired texture. The result is a softer Kilim with curved shapes, unlike traditional Kilims that typically feature geometric and rectilinear patterns. These rugs are handcrafted with 100% Afghan wool. Their rustic appearance and the irregularities of the wool create unique rugs that showcase the beauty and authenticity of craftsmanship. Their curly fringes add a special touch.
The Telares Collection is available in 5 colors, each seeking a range of contrasts with the combination of the characteristic natural color of Afghan wool and a contrasting color. This collection represents the outcome of ongoing research into the possibilities offered by hand weaving. Through the variation and pressure of fibers, we have created a rug with a unique texture and rhythm.

In 2002, the company's second generation was incorporated, consolidating its growth and international expansion. True to her design roots, Nani Marquina launched her eponymous brand in 1987, at a time when contemporary rugs were a rarity in Spain.
After studying industrial design at the Escuela Massana in Barcelona and achieving success with her first bespoke textile projects, Nani launched Nanimarquina, a brand dedicated to the design, creation, and distribution of rugs and textile products for the home. Her vision is based on values such as observation, innovation, and enthusiasm, with the goal of using traditional craftsmanship and techniques to create contemporary pieces.
In 1993, Nani Marquina embarked on a daring business venture: she moved manufacturing facilities to northern India. The increasing incorporation of craftsmanship and tradition as a new design concept marked a significant difference, solidifying the brand in the industry. Over the years, the brand has received numerous awards, including the National Design Award and the Chamber Award for Design Management in 2005, as well as several nominations for the Prince Felipe Award for Company Excellence.
