Description

Large rectangular forms in near-black charcoal and mid-grey sit against an off-white and pale silver ground, with three cerulean-blue silk rectangles placed at irregular intervals across the composition. The blocks do not align into a grid. Each one carries a different internal texture, eroded at its surface, some smoother, some broken with white fracture marks.

A note on the dye

Madder root, soaked five days, simmered three.

The red you see in the field is not one red. It is seven dye lots, each pulled at a slightly different hour from the same copper vat,the variation lives only in the wool, never in the recipe.

Bring the room into the rug - never the other way around.

A rug is sized to read once, in full, as you walk past it. The longer sizes tell a different story across a whole room.

Asked & answered

Questions you'd want to ask.

Plain answers about the wool, the loom, and what the rug does over years of use.

Block · the asked & answered
The design has large dark zones. Does the charcoal wool show lint or dust more visibly than lighter areas?

Dark wool surfaces can show pale dust and debris more readily than mid-toned areas. Regular low-suction vacuuming addresses this quickly. The hi-low construction means the charcoal wool sits at a lower pile, which actually reduces surface exposure compared to a uniform cut pile.

Does the geometric composition work better with certain furniture arrangements than others?

The asymmetric block layout reads best when furniture does not fully cover the cerulean rectangles. In a 9x12 or 10x14, positioning the sofa along the longer edge keeps the blue accents visible within the seated field of view. All-legs-on configurations work well here.

How do the silk and wool areas feel different underfoot in a hi-low construction like this?

Wool at the lower pile feels dense and firm underfoot. Silk at the higher pile, which carries the cerulean passages here, is noticeably softer to the touch. The transition between the two is physical as well as visual, which is characteristic of this construction type.
