Jazz Axminster reinterprets the very first toile de Tours published by Le Manach in 1928, a design of African influence that records the fascination the continent exerted on Europeans of the time. Reworked as an Axminster carpet, the drawing gains the depth and durability of woven pile while keeping its period energy. It is a document of the decorative 1920s brought to the floor, syncopated, confident, and carrying its history lightly.
