Mistero, Italian for mystery, is defined by a series of carved, high–low contours that move in a topographic rhythm. It is a geometric composition created through varying pile heights, producing a dramatic relief effect. These raised and recessed lines create an interplay of shadow and sheen, amplifying the natural lustre of the yarn.
The pattern itself evokes an inscription with the alphabet of an ancient culture, letters defined by an organic flow and an architectural logic. Curving pathways meet squared, nested forms, suggesting a balance between nature’s irregularity and human-made structure.
Perfect as a grounding element in living spaces, lounges, or intimate hospitality settings, this rug defines atmosphere. The rich hues add a luxurious accent that pairs well with neutral palettes, metallic accents, or complementary cool tones. Handcrafted by De Caldes rug artisans in New Zealand wool and Viscose.
