ABOUT THE COLOURWAY
Dark Grey is a deep, natural melange created from undyed wool, with a predominantly charcoal grey appearance and subtle variations from mid-grey to near-black fibres adding natural depth and texture. The broad surface of the handmade felt showcases this naturally marled effect, with lighter and darker fibres creating subtle variation throughout each mat. Understated and easy to live with, this versatile dark neutral works beautifully with natural wood, stone, linen and handmade ceramics in contemporary interiors.

HANDMADE IN NEPAL
Our felted mats and bowls are handmade at a small workshop in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, with whom AURA QUE has worked since 2019. The women makers live locally and work flexible hours around their family commitments. Using traditional wet-felting techniques, loose wool fibres are gradually transformed into dense, durable pieces, with subtle variations in shape and texture reflecting the handmade process.
MATERIAL, CRAFT & NATURAL VARIATION
Our felt home accessories are handmade from mulesing-free 100% sheep wool, carefully felted and shaped by hand using just soap and water. The distinctive soft texture and subtle tonal variations give each piece its handmade character. Wool felt is renewable and biodegradable; shades of grey, brown and cream are undyed, while other colours use azo-free dyes. Small variations in thickness, texture and form are a natural part of the wet-felting process and give every piece its own character.
MORE ABOUT THE ARTISAN PROCESS
- Preparing the wool: Wool fleece is carefully prepared and arranged in layers, with the fibres positioned to create the shape, thickness and colour required for each AURA QUE design.
- Wet felting by hand: A small amount of water and soap is used as the wool is repeatedly worked by hand. Moisture, friction and pressure encourage the fibres to bind together, gradually creating a dense and durable felt.
- Shaping the design: As the wool felts, the artisans continue to work and shape the material into the required form, whether creating a flat mat or a three-dimensional bowl. This hands-on process gives each piece subtle variations in shape and texture.
- Drying in the sun: Once fully felted, the pieces are dried naturally in the sun on the roof of the workshop.
