It is art, and the L'Ornement Collection is a testament to that belief. To understand the silk carpet price and what each piece represents in craft and time, speak with our consultants.

Which interiors and design styles does the L'Ornement Collection belong to? +

The L'Ornement Collection was conceived with born of Rococo, strikingly different, ornate, a whisper of 18th century France. It speaks most naturally to interiors that share its sensibility, spaces that value the considered over the commonplace, the crafted over the convenient. Whether that is a contemporary home that prizes restraint and texture, a traditional interior that draws on the richness of heritage, or a transitional space navigating both worlds, the L'Ornement Collection finds its place.

How do I choose the right size from the L'Ornement Collection for my room? +

Choosing the right luxury carpet size is as important as choosing the right design. Here is how we guide our clients:
1. In a living room, choose a size where the front legs of all key furniture rest on the carpet
2. In a bedroom, the carpet should extend at least 60 cm beyond either side of the bed
3. In a dining room, ensure chairs remain on the carpet even when pulled out from the table
4. In a hallway or corridor, the carpet should run the full length, with 10–15 cm clearance on each side
5. When in doubt, our design consultants offer complimentary guidance at all Hands showrooms. A great carpet, in the right size, transforms a room. We help you find it.

Is the L'Ornement Collection suitable for a high-traffic room? +

The answer lies in the construction and fibre. Pieces from the L'Ornement Collection crafted in fine silk carry the resilience of a tradition that has endured for generations, they are built, quite literally, to last lifetimes. For spaces that see quieter, more contemplative life, a bedroom, a study, a formal drawing room, the more delicate silk or bamboo silk pieces reveal their full splendour. Our design consultants will guide you to the piece that belongs in your space. Talk to us. At Hands, the luxury carpet is approached with the same devotion, handmade in the purest sense, since 1881.

How do I care for a carpet from the L'Ornement Collection so it lasts for generations? +

A Hands carpet, cared for with the same devotion with which it was made, will endure for generations. Vacuum gently, on a low setting, never against the pile. Rotate every six months so the light and the foot fall are shared evenly across the weave. If something spills, blot, never rub; the fibres have memory, and patience is always rewarded. A professional clean every year or two will restore the lustre and depth that make fine silk so extraordinary. Treat it as the heirloom it is.

What materials and craft techniques define the L'Ornement Collection? +

The L'Ornement Collection is brought to life in fine silk, fibres chosen not merely for their quality, but for the particular character they lend to the finished piece. The construction, hand knotted, hand tufted, or hand woven, depending on the design, is executed by artisans who painstakingly work to elevate luxury carpet making beyond craft into art. Natural dyes, where the design calls for them, give each carpet a colour depth that deepens, rather than fades, with time. This is how Hands has worked since 1881. This is what it means to say a carpet is handmade in the purest sense.
