Designer Charlotte Lancelot has reinterpreted the petit point embroidery technique in her Silai collection. Silai rugs contain tile-like patterns, achieved through four different stitch lengths. This technique generates squares, triangles, diamonds, hexagons, octagons and crosses which, when combined, are reminiscent of the mismatched floors that can still be found in old houses. This one is the Gray model, the most neutral of the collection, hand-embroidered with thick dark gray and white wool threads.

The Silai collection reinterprets the basic foundations of petit point embroidery through a very specific review of this technique, applied both to the types of stitches and to the scale and thickness of the threads. The attractive patterns of the rugs, poufs and cushions that make up the series are based on just four stitch variations, hand-embroidered by Indian artisans with 100% virgin wool yarns on a PVC grid. The wooden auxiliary tables in this collection add functionality and make it possible to configure the Silai space in the most versatile way. Silai, a GAN Spaces collection GAN spaces are collections meticulously constructed from innovative concepts and artisanal production methods. Suggestive proposals that, stemming from a rug, are capable of bringing to life a whole family of modules and accessories with which to design an environment or "space". A set of designs linked together, designed to project stimulating and contemporary atmospheres with an open, flexible and casual configuration.
