Shabby Chic Ziegler Darcie Gray/Tan Wool Round Rug - 10'0'' X 10'0''

Small, soft-toned blossoms are scattered across a gray field inside a tan floral border. The all-over design has no center, which makes furniture placement easy. It is a shabby chic traditional 10x10 round rug in gray and tan.

Hand knotted and one of a kind, this wool round rug is made from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The gray of the field and the tan of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants, and brown and pink pick out the smaller motifs. You may notice an abrash in the gray 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. Once the 10x10 round rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. 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. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.

It makes a good accent under a side table, a plant stand, or in a reading corner. In gray and tan, with touches of brown and pink, this rug suits warm minimalist, modern organic, and coastal interiors, and it sits easily beside light wood and linen. The floral pattern leans transitional and suits cottage and grandmillennial rooms too.
