Named for the apse — the rounded recess that closes the end of a great hall, a shape architects have used to draw the eye for centuries. Apse is a hand-tufted carpet in lustrous Tencel silk, where soft arch and portal forms overlap in warm sand, beige, and taupe against dove and stone grey. The silk sheen lights the curves from within, so the shapes seem to float and recede as you move. Architectural, calm, quietly modern. This is a piece of art that happens to live on your floor.

A Note On Tencel Silk Tencel is a botanical silk — a soft, lustrous fibre spun from sustainably sourced wood pulp. It carries the sheen and fluid drape of silk with a gentle, cool hand underfoot, and it is what gives Apse its luminous, almost backlit quality. Because it is finer and more delicate than wool, we recommend professional cleaning for anything beyond a gentle spot-clean, and a rug pad underneath to protect the pile. |

Care & Maintenance | ||||||||
A Tencel silk rug is a refined, delicate piece — treat it gently and it will keep its luminous sheen for years. The silk content makes it softer and more delicate than wool, so blot spills immediately and lean on professional cleaners for anything deeper. For any queries write to us at humminghaus@gmail.com |

Questions, Answered |
What size rug should I choose for my living room?For a 3-seater sofa, the 6 × 9 ft Apse is the natural fit — large enough for the front legs of the sofa to rest on it, which anchors the seating area. For an open or larger living room where you would like the whole sofa on the rug, move up to 8 × 10 ft. When you are between two sizes, going up always looks more considered. What is Tencel silk, and why choose it?Tencel is a botanical silk spun from sustainably sourced wood pulp — it has the lustre and fluid drape of natural silk with a soft, cool feel underfoot. It is what gives Apse its luminous, light-catching surface, and it is a more sustainable choice than many traditional silk fibres. Is Apse suitable for homes with kids and pets?Apse is made from natural Tencel silk with no harmful chemicals, so it is safe to live with. That said, silk is more delicate than wool, so Apse is happiest in living rooms, bedrooms, and formal spaces rather than the highest-traffic or messiest corners of the home. Can I order Apse in a custom size or palette?Yes. Every Apse is hand-tufted to order in Mirzapur, so the size can be adjusted to your room and the palette can be shifted to suit your space. Share your dimensions and we will craft it to fit. How long will it take to arrive?Apse is crafted per order and ships in 8 weeks. Shipping is free across India, and you will have updates from loom to door. How do I clean and care for it?Vacuum gently on low suction without a beater bar, and treat spills immediately by blotting with cold water — never soak, scrub, or bleach. Because it is silk, we recommend a professional rug cleaner for anything beyond a light spot-clean, and a rug pad underneath helps protect the pile. Why choose a handmade rug over a machine-made one?A handmade rug is made by a single artisan, tuft by tuft, giving it a depth of texture and a longevity machine-made rugs cannot match. Slight variations in pattern and colour are not flaws; they are the record of a human hand. Still deciding?
