Artisanal techniques and exceptional savoir-faire
Our 170x240 rugs are crafted using three masterful artisanal techniques, each offering distinct aesthetic and tactile characteristics. The choice of technique directly influences the look, texture and durability of your rug.
Hand-knotted: exceptional precision and longevity
The hand-knotted rug represents the pinnacle of textile craftsmanship. Each knot is tied individually on a vertical loom, an ancestral technique that guarantees unrivalled finesse of detail and remarkable durability. A hand-knotted 170x240 rug requires between 3 and 6 months of artisanal work, with a density that can reach 100,000 knots per square metre. This exacting standard gives the rug a resilience that spans generations.
Hand-tufted: creativity and tactile comfort
The hand-tufted rug offers remarkable creative flexibility, allowing complex patterns and sophisticated textured reliefs. The artisan inserts the yarns into a stretched canvas using a hand-held tufting gun. Making a 170x240 rug takes 2 to 3 months, and the result is plush and enveloping to the touch. This method allows an extensive colour palette and bold graphic compositions.
Hand-woven: geometry and graphic precision
The hand-woven rug is distinguished by its absolute geometric precision. Warp and weft threads interlace on a traditional horizontal loom, an ancestral technique that produces perfectly crisp patterns. A 170x240 rug is made in 1 to 2 months. Hand-weaving creates a flat, even surface, particularly suited to minimalist designs and pared-back geometric compositions.
Noble materials for lasting quality
We select only exceptional natural materials for our 170x240 rugs. This exacting standard guarantees aesthetic beauty, tactile comfort and remarkable longevity, with each material bringing its own character to your interior.
Wool remains our material of choice for its incomparable qualities. It offers natural softness to the touch and exceptional resilience. Our wool rugs withstand daily wear while retaining their original lustre. Wool naturally regulates humidity and purifies the air, bringing warmth and comfort to your living space.
Cotton charms with its lightness and natural freshness. This plant fibre offers a silky touch and a subtle sheen. Cotton rugs are perfectly suited to pared-back contemporary interiors. Cotton naturally absorbs moisture and is easy to care for, bringing light and visual softness to the room.
Jute embodies raw authenticity and natural elegance. This robust plant fibre offers a pronounced, warm texture. Our jute rugs bring character and authenticity to interiors. Jute is remarkably hard-wearing and ages with a noble patina, creating an organic, soothing atmosphere.
Bamboo represents ecological modernity and contemporary refinement. This innovative material offers exceptional resilience and a silky sheen. Bamboo rugs combine technical performance with pared-back aesthetics, bringing visual freshness and remarkable durability. It is perfectly suited to high-traffic spaces.
Contemporary designs by renowned designers
Our 170x240 rugs bear the signature of internationally recognised designers. Each creation is the result of close collaboration between our Paris studio and talents of contemporary design, an alliance of artistic vision and artisanal savoir-faire that produces unique pieces.
Andrée Putman, Hilton McConnico, Christophe Pillet and Inès de la Fressange are among the designers who have imagined rugs for Toulemonde Bochart. Dorothée Delaye also brings her contemporary, poetic vision. Each designer explores distinct graphic worlds while respecting the identity of the house.
Our collections explore three main aesthetic worlds:
- Geometric and minimalist: clean lines, architectural compositions, an understated and sophisticated palette
- Organic and sensory: flowing forms, contrasting textures, botanical and natural inspirations
- Colourful and bold: vibrant graphic compositions, assertive palettes, visual dynamism
Our selection of rugs brings together timeless iconic pieces and innovative seasonal creations. Every rug tells a story and carries a singular artistic vision, and our collections evolve with the seasons while preserving our creative identity.
How to bring a 170x240 rug into your interior
The 170x240 rug subtly structures a space and creates harmonious living zones. This size offers remarkable versatility across the different rooms of your home.
In the living room: creating a convivial zone
In a living room of 15 to 25 m_, a 170x240 rug naturally defines the relaxation area. Position it so that the front legs of the sofa rest on the rug, with the coffee table at its centre. Armchairs can sit partly or entirely on the rug, depending on the layout. This arrangement creates a coherent, warm conversation area.
Leave 30 to 50 centimetres between the edges of the rug and the walls. This peripheral space lets the room breathe, avoids a fitted-carpet effect and preserves the elegance of the composition. The rug structures the space without weighing it down.
In the bedroom: softness and comfort as you wake
A 170x240 rug brings softness and warmth to a master bedroom. Position it perpendicular to the bed, extending 60 to 80 centimetres on each side, so that your feet land on a plush surface as you wake. This arrangement frames the bed and structures the sleeping area.
The rug can also run alongside the length of the bed, a layout well suited to narrow bedrooms. It creates a warm textile pathway and protects against cold floors. The 170x240 size adapts to every bedroom configuration.
In the study: elegance and professional comfort
A 170x240 rug transforms a study into a refined, inspiring workspace. Position it beneath the desk and chair to clearly define the working area. The rug absorbs sound, improving acoustic comfort, and also protects the floor from chair castors.
The rug brings warmth and character to an often functional space, inspiring creativity and concentration. Our artisanal savoir-faire creates a distinguished professional environment.
