The Finarte Columbus rug, designed by Eija Rasinmäki in the late 1990s, is one of her very first wool rug designs for Finarte. Its beautiful color palette combines deep and light shades of blue with subtle light beige details, resulting in a harmonious and elegant design.

The inspiration for Columbus came from a view seen from an airplane — the wide blue sea with islands sparkling like lights. This impression, captured in abstract form, gave the rug both its distinctive character and its name, reminiscent of an explorer’s discovery.

Hand-tufted from luxurious thick wool with a sturdy cotton backing, Columbus is naturally dirt repellent, durable, and soft underfoot. Its practical qualities make it suitable for a variety of interiors, from living rooms to bedrooms, while offering timeless beauty for everyday life.
