Description

Deep ink-navy and dark slate-blue masses press in from the lower edge and left side, their upper boundaries dissolving through stippled transitions into a pale ice-blue and off-white ground. Horizontal dark bands run across the mid-field, narrow and eroded, breaking the open ground into distinct registers. The upper field holds the most open area, cream-white and quiet against the weight below.

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.

Swell · the asked & answered
Does the asymmetric composition, with the dark mass concentrated at one end, affect how the rug should be oriented under furniture?

Yes. Placing the dark navy end toward the back of the room, with the sofa sitting across the lighter upper field, gives the composition its most resolved reading. The dark mass becomes a visual anchor behind the seating group rather than a weight at the front of the room. The horizontal bands remain visible beyond the furniture footprint in both the 9x12 and 10x14.

How does the navy and ice-blue palette read in a coastal or beach-facing room?

The palette connects naturally with sea and sky tones without illustrating them literally. In the lifestyle image, the cool blue-white ground reads as part of the room's light rather than as a decorative reference. Light-toned furniture and natural fibre accents let the rug's colour range hold without competing with the surrounding interior.

Is the pile resilient enough in the pale upper field to maintain its texture underfoot over years of regular use?

The pale upper field carries the same pile structure and wool-silk construction as the darker zones. Colour does not affect pile resilience. Regular low-suction vacuuming maintains the surface texture across both the open pale field and the denser dark passages, and annual rotation prevents uneven wear between the two zones.
