Myth inspiration In ancient China the koi, especially in its coloured mutations, was regarded as a holy fish. The koi symbolized strength, wisdom, perseverance and luck. Ancient myths recount about a great black dragon that terrorized the world from its hidden lair behind a magnificent waterfall. Despite many attempts no hero had ever succeeded in destroying the beast. Until one day, when a large koi was seen swimming in the river and up the waterfall. Once it had made it up to the lair it suddenly transformed into a white dragon, which managed to defeat the black dragon after a fierce battle. From then onwards, recount the myths, the koi enjoyed its sanctified status in both Chinese and Japanese cultures.

manufacturer BIC Carpets, Edward van Vliet launched a series of flat woven rugs with a wonderful range of intricate designs. Inspired on Asian themes and mythology, the dragons and koi seamlessly flow into a landscape of abstract, geometrical shapes, hinting of mantras and flower petals. Next to the jubilant Tattoo Koi, Tattoo Dragon and Tattoo Hexagon designs, the series envelops a range of rugs with a more subtle rhythm, showing patterns related to astronomical discovery and seafaring. The rugs are designed to be used in a modular fashion; without traditional borders, they can be mixed and matched freely. The use of strong, yet lightweight acrylic chenille allows the designs to be thin enough to allow for overlapping compositions on floors, application on walls and, because of their durability, even outside on terraces and patio’s.
