Cotton on cotton
"Cotton on cotton" is a Materiality label in our listings for a piece made of cotton throughout, face and foundation. Ziloos, the flatwoven floor coverings of the Yazd region, are usually all cotton, and our listings also give the label to a few cotton kilims and sofrehs. Cotton is less elastic than wool and holds its shape better.
