Vintage Color Reform Rose Hand Knotted Wool Rug - 11'11'' x 17'2''

Blossoms and vines show in darker lines through a bright blue field inside a wide floral border. The pattern is tone on tone, so the rug reads as one color from across the room and shows its detail up close. This 12x17 overdyed area rug comes in blue.

Hand knotted in all natural dyed, hand-spun wool, this rug is one of a kind. The rug was then sun faded for three to six months, so the sun's energy could organically soften its original colors. Once neutralized, it was overdyed in blue and washed, revealing deep, vibrant hues that make each piece a one-of-a-kind work of art. The dye takes differently on each shade of the original design, which is why the pattern shows through tone on tone instead of disappearing. You may notice lighter and deeper areas of blue across the surface. That layered, uneven color is the signature of an overdyed rug, and together with the hand-tied knots it gives the rug its own personality. The wool pile is dense and soft underfoot, and it stands up well to daily use in busy rooms.

It is made for a great room, a formal living room, or a dining room with a table that seats ten or more. The deep blue color suits contemporary, coastal, and eclectic rooms, and it pairs well with white, gray, natural wood, and brass.
