Chic Ziegler Monique Brown/Beige Wool Rug - 8'11'' x 10'10''

Square panels, each holding an hourglass motif, form a tidy grid in brown and beige. The ordered pattern brings structure to a room without feeling busy. It is a chic modern 9x11 area rug in brown and beige.

This handmade wool rug is one of a kind, hand knotted from a blend of hand-spun local wool and fine merino wool and colored with natural vegetable dyes extracted from local plants. Those dyes create an abrash, a soft shift in shade within a single color. Hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch, so the variation is normal and is one of the signs of a true handmade rug. After knotting, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen and a comfortable feel underfoot.

Use it as a large living room rug, under a dining table that seats eight, or in a great room. The rich brown and beige tones, with touches of greenish blue and tan, give an eclectic or boho chic room its focal point, and they add warmth to modern farmhouse and industrial loft spaces. The grid of panels suits mid-century modern and modern farmhouse furniture.
