It is a classic transitional 10x14 area rug in black and red.

Hand knotted and one of a kind, this wool rug is made from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The black of the field and the red of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants, and rust and tan pick out the smaller motifs. You may notice an abrash in the black field, a soft shift in shade within a single color. It comes from hand-spun wool taking natural dye slightly differently from batch to batch, and it is one of the signs of a true handmade rug. Fine hand knotting keeps the small blossoms and curving vines crisp. The pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen across the full 9'10'' x 14'3''. What you get is a dense wool pile with a soft hand, low enough to sit neatly under chairs and doors and sturdy enough for busy rooms. Like all hand knotted wool, the pile has a nap, so the black tones shift slightly as you walk around the rug and as the light changes.

It holds a full living room seating group, a dining table for six to eight, or a spacious primary bedroom. The dark black and red tones, with touches of rust and tan, anchor a contemporary or industrial space, and they set off metal, glass, and pale upholstery. The floral pattern leans transitional and suits cottage and grandmillennial rooms too.
