The pattern is tone-on-tone, so the rug reads as one color from across the room and shows its detail up close. This 9x11 overdyed area rug comes in blue.

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 blue and hand-washed, leaving bold, chromatic tones that give a traditional design a completely new, modern life. 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 holds a full living room seating group, a dining table for six to eight, or a spacious primary bedroom. The deep blue color suits contemporary, coastal, and eclectic rooms, and it pairs well with white, gray, natural wood, and brass. See less
