Rows of soft diamond medallions repeat across a tan field inside a brown-toned border. The bold medallions give the floor a strong, balanced rhythm. It is a bohemian transitional 6x9 area rug in tan and brown.
This handmade wool rug is one of a kind, hand knotted from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool in a mix of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The vegetable dyes, extracted from local plants, give the tan field and the brown border their depth, with blue and beige used for the detail work. The tan field may show an abrash, a gentle change of shade within one color. It is normal in handmade rugs, because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. The medallions are drawn knot by knot, which keeps their outlines clean. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen across the full 5'10'' x 9'2''. The finished pile is dense and even, soft to walk on, and resilient enough to recover from furniture and daily use. Like all hand knotted wool, the pile has a nap, so the tan tones shift slightly as you walk around the rug and as the light changes.
Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. The calm tan and brown tones, with touches of blue and beige, work in Scandinavian and modern farmhouse rooms, and give a quiet-luxury feel under neutral upholstery. The medallion design suits transitional rooms and symmetrical furniture layouts.
