Behind the Scenes: Kasthall

October 13, 2009

Swedish rug manufacturer Kasthall’s factory still stands where it always has — on the shore of Häggån, outside Kinna, at the heart of western Sweden’s textile kingdom where its stunning woven and hand tufted rugs are still manufactured. Here’s a look behind the scenes into Kasthall’s manufacturing headquarters, and two of its newest introductions, Folke and Anemone, designed by head designer Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg, who is working on her 22nd year with the company.

    I really enjoyed this post. The photographs tell the story with very little verbiage required.
