An oval garland frames small scattered sprigs on a soft rose-tan field, inside a charcoal border of scrolling vines. The bold medallions give the floor a strong, balanced rhythm. It is a bohemian transitional 6x9 area rug in rose and charcoal.
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 rose of the field and the charcoal of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants, and pink and gray pick out the smaller motifs. You may notice an abrash in the rose 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 medallions are drawn knot by knot, which keeps their outlines clean. Once the 6x9 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.
Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. In rose and charcoal, with touches of pink and gray, this rug suits bohemian, global, and rustic modern interiors, and it warms up a mid-century modern room. The medallion design suits transitional rooms and symmetrical furniture layouts.
