A fine all-over pattern of blossoms and vines covers a muted brown field inside a beige floral border. The all-over design has no center, which makes furniture placement easy. It is a classic transitional 9x12 area rug in brown and beige.
This handmade wool rug is one of a kind, hand knotted from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool in a mix of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The vegetable dyes, extracted from local plants, give the brown field and the beige border their depth, with green and blue used for the detail work. The brown field may show an abrash, a gentle change of shade within one color. It is normal in handmade rugs, because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. Fine hand knotting keeps the small blossoms and curving vines crisp. Once the 9x12 rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. The finished pile is dense and even, soft to walk on, and resilient enough to recover from furniture and daily use. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.
It holds a full living room seating group, a dining table for six to eight, or a spacious primary bedroom. In brown and beige, with touches of green and blue, this rug suits bohemian, global, and rustic modern interiors, and it warms up a mid-century modern room. The floral pattern leans transitional and suits cottage and grandmillennial rooms too.
