(www.galerie-roehr-ripken.de)<br /><br />Thorsten Reuber learned something about marketing and sales in the music and new media business.<br /><br />Once he had caught her infectious passion for the beauty of color and material, it was only natural for them to decide to join forces and create beautiful rugs together: Reuber Henning was born.<br /><br />Franziska Henning calls her carpets "Poetic Images" - images that "have been inspired by a wide variety of regions, periods and moods."<br />The designs of our first collection are partly based on German 19th-century silhouette cutouts and traditional Japanese woodcuts.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQFHanBA8cEu57BHhIuJhp5dOgt44JFP43yjzIQkmg5eajILXEOtDOcGvLmhVC4MWiS9EFLv_x8r4ATU4fQHniW-bbXc7d4wI0EucYcx4SDlpmrscYXZ4qzl5Fz33U8Ynek_Fqkzw81D-3/s1600-h/japanese_top.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5051870553878352498" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQFHanBA8cEu57BHhIuJhp5dOgt44JFP43yjzIQkmg5eajILXEOtDOcGvLmhVC4MWiS9EFLv_x8r4ATU4fQHniW-bbXc7d4wI0EucYcx4SDlpmrscYXZ4qzl5Fz33U8Ynek_Fqkzw81D-3/s400/japanese_top.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 502px; height: 370px;" /></a><br /><br />Our rugs are knotted from fine Himalaya wool and chinese silk following ancient Tibetan handicraft traditions.<br /><br />We want to create rugs that belong to people, beautiful rugs in the very best quality, which will keep creating a special atmosphere a whole life long, and whose beauty and character only grow stronger with the passing years.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh1CJReroW93FDYOxqpzMFKlnhBBTjdB3cx-9aSsZr-xyxdqW4La0ExxA7sYS6SOQ90rfuTzJ4KrDY5qiPktpViFkYNQwhhdn2bSUzqocK59rNj8v_oXbk-pnvCmRarlagegC5wkIVgogW/s1600-h/fairy_top.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5051870691317305986" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh1CJReroW93FDYOxqpzMFKlnhBBTjdB3cx-9aSsZr-xyxdqW4La0ExxA7sYS6SOQ90rfuTzJ4KrDY5qiPktpViFkYNQwhhdn2bSUzqocK59rNj8v_oXbk-pnvCmRarlagegC5wkIVgogW/s400/fairy_top.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 499px; height: 674px;" /></a><br />We are newcomers.
