Artisan Overdyed Loree Hand Knotted Wool Rug - 7'11'' x 9'9''

Rows of small gold blossoms and stems cover a pale gray field inside a narrow floral border. The pattern is tone on tone, so the rug reads as one color from across the room and shows its detail up close. This 8x10 overdyed area rug comes in gray and gold.

Hand knotted in all natural dyed, hand-spun wool, this rug is one of a kind. It was then sun faded for three to six months, harnessing the sun's natural energy to gently neutralize its original colors. Artisans then overdyed it in gray and washed it by hand, bringing out soft, layered tones that turn a classic rug into an original work of art. The dye takes differently on each shade of the original design, which is why the pattern shows through tone on tone instead of disappearing. You may notice lighter and deeper areas of gray across the surface. That layered, uneven color is the signature of an overdyed rug, and together with the hand-tied knots it gives the rug its own personality. The wool pile is dense and soft underfoot, and it stands up well to daily use in busy rooms.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. The muted gray and gold color suits industrial loft, minimalist, and Japandi rooms, and it gives a modern space texture without adding pattern or bright color.
