Pale interlacing bands and blossoms cover a soft brown field inside a wide beige floral border. The all-over design has no center, which makes furniture placement easy. This oriental transitional 8x10 area rug comes in brown and beige.
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 beige of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants. 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 vines are drawn knot by knot, which keeps their lines clean. After knotting, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried, which gives this 8x10 rug its 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. Because the pile lies in one direction, the brown field looks a little deeper from one end of the rug and lighter from the other.
Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. The warm brown and beige palette brings a boho chic, eclectic feel to a room and pairs well with leather, walnut, and brass. The leafy pattern suits transitional and cottage-style rooms.
