Oriental Ziegler Millie Green/ Brown Wool Rug - 7'8'' x 10'0''

A tone-on-tone pattern of scalloped medallions covers the field in soft green and brown. The regular repeat gives the rug a tailored, orderly feel. This oriental transitional 8x10 area rug comes in green and brown.

This one-of-a-kind, handmade wool rug is hand knotted from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The vegetable dyes, extracted from local plants, color the green field and the brown border, with taupe and tan in the details. Look for the abrash, a gentle shift in shade within a single color. It tends to show most in larger areas of one color, such as the green field here, and it happens because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. The medallions are knotted by eye, so each repeat is very slightly different from the next. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen across the full 7'8'' x 10'0''. The result is a dense, even wool pile that feels soft underfoot, springs back under furniture, and stands up to everyday foot traffic. Like all hand knotted wool, the pile has a nap, so the green tones shift slightly as you walk around the rug and as the light changes.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. The mix of green and brown, with touches of taupe and tan, works in contemporary and mid-century modern rooms, and it ties warm wood tones to cooler upholstery. The rich pattern pairs well with solid upholstery and simple lines.
