Designed by internationally acclaimed Danish designer Cecilie Manz, Gryn is a thin, light, flat-woven rug that combines wool and linen in a new effect yarn, specially developed for the Landskab Collection. This combination of twisted wool and linen creates shimmering pearls on the surface when light shines on the linen yarn. While the rug may appear even from a distance, it reveals a textured surface filled with intricate details up close.
