Michael is joined by Lady Deirdre Dyson, the designer and curator of the eponymous Deirdre Dyson carpet collections.

Described as a “fascinating blend of art and process, of ancient skill and new technology”, Lady Dyson’s concepts are crafted from what has been called a “gift”: her instinct for colour, brought to life by the finest Tibetan materials.

Her latest collection, All at Sea, is inspired by a unique experience of the pandemic that kept her out on stranger tides for three months while sailing the Guadeloupe islands.
