Miko Teppe collection was inspired by my nostalgic memories of growing up in Russia where it was common to display valuable rugs on a wall. Family’s rugs were a great source of pride and status while also helping to insulate homes during cold Russian winters.

Many steps go into crafting a Miko Teppe sheepskins rug.  Assembling multiple sheepskin pieces of various textures and length. Braiding the wool sourced locally from Navajo-Churro sheep and stitching it to the rug. Prepping the wool for fringe application by wet felting it to get different yarn texture and thickness. Hand-felting the wool fringe to make it stronger and stiffer. It's a slow, meticulous and meditative process.

All of the rugs are one-of-a-kind, created in my studio in San Francisco.
