Chic Zeigler Aubrie Blue/Beige Wool Rug - 8'3'' x 9'8''

Rows of round, quartered medallions repeat across a soft blue field inside a red and beige geometric border. The medallion design gives the room a natural focal point. It is a chic transitional 8x10 area rug in blue and beige.

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 blue field and the beige border their depth, with light blue and red used for the detail work. The blue 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. Fine hand knotting keeps each medallion sharp against the field. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen across the full 8'3'' x 9'8''. 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 blue tones shift slightly as you walk around the rug and as the light changes.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. The blue and beige tones, with touches of light blue and red, work in contemporary, coastal, and mid-century modern interiors, and they pair easily with gray, white, and natural wood. The medallion design suits transitional rooms and symmetrical furniture layouts.
