Electra
Electra is an exclusive carpet made in 100% cactus with a textural surface.
Electra is part of the handloom carpet collection exclusively made for C&C Milano.
Electra is an exclusive carpet made in 100% cactus, spun in a thick yarn and woven into tiny loops to create a three-dimensional surface. Cactus yarn is a textural fiber, sturdy and resistant but also soft and comfortable to walk on, kindly massaging the skin. Electra has a lightly ribbed surface due to the looped weaving structure that enhances the naturally melange yarn in beautiful natural shades of browns, available also in the bleached version in the tones of cream white. Its minimalist look is made unique by the use of such an astonishing fiber as Cactus.
No standard sizes, maximum width 204 “, length upon request.
Surcharge for sizes over 144 x 180 inch.

It is really a sturdy plant that can be spun and woven in a wide variety of forms and structures. Cactus is one of the strongest natural fibers and has always been valued for its durability.
