Pappilon is a mother, daughter collaboration of ideas spanning 'some' decades of new and old. Both having a fascination with interiors and art we like to think we have a unique style and taste where we select individual pieces for their own stand-alone worth and value and like family, it is a growing family of unique antique pieces that makes us love what we do.
The philosophy we both share is 'Things of quality have no fear of time'. Antiques which have withstood the test of time relate to a quality found in craftsmanship most often lost in today's modern age. This doesn't simply mean we stick with the old but the ethos of what we stand for is that even antiques for the future should have a consideration to its longevity and quality as well as its style.
At Pappilon we pride ourselves on seeking out items for the home by selecting unique pieces of furniture and furnishings not simply as a ready-made style but where each individual item has something to say for itself, much like the individuals who buy from us.
An early 20th Century Kuba Kelleh rug, demonstrating large proportions and rich tones throughout.
What a wonderful addition to our rug department! A sense of stateliness conjures up feelings of grandeur not only for its dramatic size but the bold shapes and contrasts in its colours echoing a sense of sophisticated playfulness. The main field design demonstrates bold symmetrical geometric pattern of flowers and vines. Woven on a rich indigo background, the array of tones and colours used throughout lift the carpets palette. A truly exceptional Kelleh carpet ideal for use in an entrance hall, corridor or situated under a dining table. Displaying a semi-high pile, which will bring warmth and drama to any large room giving it great appeal.
Kuba rugs originate from the North East of Caucaus's area near the Caspian Sea.
