Eclectic Ziegler Lucile Brown/Rust Wool Rug - 8'2'' x 9'10''

A fine, faded pattern of small blossoms covers a soft brown field inside a rust border. It brings a soft, garden-like feel to the floor. It is an eclectic transitional 8x10 area rug in brown and rust.

Hand knotted and one of a kind, this wool rug is made from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The brown of the field and the rust of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants, and taupe and beige pick out the smaller motifs. You may notice an abrash in the brown field, a soft shift in shade within a single color. It comes from hand-spun wool taking natural dye slightly differently from batch to batch, and it is one of the signs of a true handmade rug. The curves of the flowers and vines are drawn knot by knot, which keeps their outlines sharp. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen across the full 8'2'' x 9'10''. What you get is a dense wool pile with a soft hand, low enough to sit neatly under chairs and doors and sturdy enough for busy rooms. Like all hand knotted wool, the pile has a nap, so the brown tones shift slightly as you walk around the rug and as the light changes.

Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. The rich brown and rust tones, with touches of taupe and beige, give an eclectic or boho chic room its focal point, and they add warmth to modern farmhouse and industrial loft spaces. The floral pattern leans transitional and suits cottage and grandmillennial rooms too.
