The Taroni Initiative Turning Textiles Into Living Art<\/h1>\n\n\n

Since 1880, Taroni<\/a> has been synonymous with fine luxury silk, supplying haute couture ateliers and high-end fashion brands. This year, the Como, Italy-based textile house embraces the circular economy with Taroni Laboratorio, an initiative that reimagines discarded silk from the cutting room floor as vibrant home goods that bridge traditional craft and contemporary sensibilities. At its heart are floorcoverings born from a collaboration between Milan-based American artist Lillian Grant and Italian-Moroccan manufacturer Casa Amar<\/a> that employ centuries-old Amazigh weaving techniques. In some, silk knots are painstakingly hand-tied onto fine wool warps\u2014occasionally interwoven with wool fibers to temper the silk\u2019s inherent sheen. Other pieces take a different approach: Premium silk remnants are sliced into ribbons and woven using the Boucherouite technique, a practice that emerged in the 1950s specifically for transforming repurposed textiles into functional art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
