A LEGACY

The Spanish carpet brand named after its founder and head designer Nani Marquina started its way in Barcelona in 1987, following Marquina’s passion for designer carpets. The core values of the brand constitute creativity and constant development with commitment to the environment and sustainability, care for social sensitivity and aspirations for innovation and understanding innovation is possible when you truly respect the past. The brand’s carpets combine traditional techniques, handmade and contemporary designs while treating the carpets as historical pieces through shape design, use of color and rich textures. The carpets are crafted in developing countries, mainly in the brands factory in North India, using Afghan and New-Zealand wool, recycled felt and polyester, silk, canvas and natural fibers. The first collection of the brand was designed by Marquina that later joined known designers to create successful, original collections that gave the brand its reputation worldwide. Marquina’s social sensitivity comes into play with her involvement for promoting developing populations in countries like Nepal, Pakistan, India and keeping fair trade and fair labor laws as well as her work to prevent and eliminate child labor in those countries.
