    Portuguese designer Vera Iachia’s spiral rugs are handcrafted in traditional Arraiolos wool, continuing in a contemporary vein one of the most famous embroidery traditions in Portugal. Iachia’s bold graphic challenges our optical faculties and plays with our sense of balance by virtue of the fact that it is intended to be placed on the floor - a surface that we inherently use for reference in regards to maintaining our stability.
