Rustic Ziegler Adele Red/Red Wool Rug - 6'7'' x 9'8''

Tall cypress trees, branching trees and flowering vines in ivory and blue stand on a bright red field. The tree and cypress motifs give the rug an orderly, garden-like feel. This 7x10 geometric area rug comes in red.

This one-of-a-kind rug is hand knotted from hand-spun wool colored with natural vegetable dyes extracted from local plants. The wool is a blend of merino, New Zealand and Ghazni wool, which gives the pile a high lanolin content and a long staple, so it feels soft and wears well. You may notice an abrash in the red field, a gentle shift in shade within a single color that comes from hand-spun wool taking the natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. It shows most against the red border. The trees and branches are knotted by hand, row by row, from a drawn pattern. The rug is tied with a double knot. Once the knotting is done, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried, which brings out a natural sheen and softens the colors. The pile is soft and dense underfoot, and it stands up well to daily use.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. The warm red palette suits bohemian, rustic, and Southwestern rooms, and it pairs well with leather, wood, and woven textures. The design draws on antique tribal and Caucasian rugs, so it brings a collected, heritage look to a modern room.
