Modern Ziegler Alita Tan/Brown Wool Rug - 7'11'' x 10'3''

A plain tan field is framed by a wide brown border of scrolling vines. The open field keeps the look calm and lets the border do the decorating. This modern 8x10 area rug comes in tan and brown.

This one-of-a-kind, handmade wool rug is hand knotted from a blend of hand-spun local wool and fine merino wool, and colored with natural vegetable dyes extracted from local plants. The dyes give the pile an abrash, a gentle shift in shade within a single color. It happens because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch, and it is one of the signs of a true handmade rug. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen and a soft, comfortable feel underfoot.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. The soft tan and brown palette is a natural fit for Scandinavian, Japandi, and minimalist rooms, where texture and quiet color do the work. With a plain center, it works under patterned furniture as easily as solid pieces.
