Oriental Ziegler Deeanna Grey/Orange Wool Rug - 8'0'' x 9'10''

Rows of bright oval palmettes in orange, red and green are spaced across a gray field. The medallion design gives the room a natural focal point. This oriental transitional 8x10 area rug comes in gray and orange.

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 gray field and the orange border their depth, with blue and red used for the detail work. The gray 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. Once the 8x10 rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. The finished pile is dense and even, soft to walk on, and resilient enough to recover from furniture and daily use. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.

It anchors a living room seating group, a bedroom, or a dining room. In gray and orange, with touches of blue and red, this rug suits warm minimalist, modern organic, and coastal interiors, and it sits easily beside light wood and linen. The bold medallions pair well with solid upholstery and simple lines.
