Description

A deep teal-navy ground carries an allover field of circular disc medallions in terracotta-rust, sky-blue, straw-gold, and ivory, each one ringed by serrated leaf wreaths. The discs vary in colour and internal pattern, distributing across the field without symmetry. The border runs on a saturated rust-red ground with a dense paisley and animal-figure vine in teal, gold, and ivory.

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.

Questions you'd want to ask.

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

Orbit · the asked & answered
The disc medallions vary in colour and size across the field. Is this variation consistent between pieces of the same design?

The distribution of disc colours and sizes follows the design as drawn, so the overall pattern is consistent across pieces. However, natural variation in hand-dyeing means individual discs may read slightly differently in tone between rugs. This is a characteristic of hand-knotted wool production rather than inconsistency, and adds to the surface's hand-made quality.

The field and rust-red border carry very different visual weight. How should furniture be placed to balance the composition?

Keeping furniture legs within the field rather than sitting over the border preserves the visual separation between the two zones. For the 9x12, front legs of the main sofa and chairs on the field works well. The 10x14 allows a full seating group within the field. In both cases, leaving all four border sides unobstructed lets the rust-red frame the composition as intended.

How does the medium-low pile perform in a living room used daily by a family?

Medium-low pile hand-knotted wool is well-suited to daily family use. The tighter pile resists compression more effectively than higher piles and maintains its surface definition over years of regular traffic. The wool construction handles spills, foot traffic, and furniture weight without significant deterioration. Rotating annually and vacuuming regularly on low suction keeps the surface in good condition.
