This 9x12 overdyed area rug comes in gray.

Hand-knotted in all-natural dyed, hand-spun wool, this rug is one of a kind. Next, it spent three to six months in the sun, where natural sunlight slowly drew out its original colors. It was then overdyed in gray and hand-washed, leaving quiet, tonal shades that give a traditional design a completely new, modern life. The dye takes a little differently from knot to knot, which is what gives the color its fine streaks and depth instead of a flat, printed look. You may notice lighter and deeper areas of gray 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 holds a full living room seating group, a dining table for six to eight, or a spacious primary bedroom. The muted gray color suits industrial loft, minimalist, and Japandi rooms, and it gives a modern space texture without adding pattern or bright color. See less
