HUMMINGBIRD PICNIC RUG

Sumptuously rendered by New Zealand artist Catherine Marion, this hand-drawn composition of hummingbirds and exquisite florals dazzles the eye with a harmonious spectrum of bracing yet earthy tones atop a delicate cream-hued backdrop.

Here is Catherine with her inspiration for the design ...

"This design is inspired by a childhood memory, a memory of summers in Quebec, observing the tiny hummingbirds that would gather only once a year to collect nectar from the trumpet-shaped flowers in my garden.

In Native American culture, the hummingbird is a sign of luck and is often perceived as a healer. There is definitely something magical in the sight of a hummingbird as they often seem to appear out of nowhere and will vanish in the blink of an eye."

Hummingbird, like all Saltwater Picnic Co. rugs is sustainably crafted using recycled materials that are water, stain and sand resistant while also being machine washable.

Each picnic rug is a large 2m x 2m, made from a single material piece (no joins) and contains a 150gsm filling making it super comfortable to spend as much time as you need hanging with family and friends.
