Rows of pale scrolled medallions repeat across a soft red field inside a scalloped beige border. The repeat reads as rich pattern up close and as soft texture from across the room. This bohemian transitional 8x10 area rug comes in red and beige.
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 red field and the beige border, with light green and blush 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 red field here, and it happens because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. Fine hand knotting keeps the curved outlines of the medallions clean. Once the 8x10 rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. The result is a dense, even wool pile that feels soft underfoot, springs back under furniture, and stands up to everyday foot traffic. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.
Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. In red and beige, with touches of light green and blush, this rug suits bohemian, global, and rustic modern interiors, and it warms up a mid-century modern room. The rich pattern pairs well with solid upholstery and simple lines.
