Description

The diamond lattice structure runs across this field, but the ground shifts the design entirely. Saturated cobalt-blue bleeds inward from all four edges, fading into a pale silver-grey and ivory centre where the lattice reads most clearly. The close-up confirms a low, tightly compressed wool pile with the blue and grey interlocked at the fiber level rather than layered on the surface. Made in India

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.

On scale

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.

Tide · the asked & answered
How saturated does the cobalt-blue read in a real room versus in product photography?

Product photography tends to intensify saturated colours. In a room, the cobalt reads as a strong but grounded blue, particularly where it transitions into the grey-ivory centre. Natural light softens it further. The pale centre acts as a visual counterweight, so the overall effect is balanced rather than dominant.

Does Tide work alongside other rugs from the collection in an open-plan space?

Yes. They share the same diamond lattice structure and the same edge-to-centre colour logic. The terracotta of Ember and the cobalt-blue of Tide are distinct enough to define separate zones in an open-plan space without conflicting. Keeping the rest of the room palette neutral lets both rugs hold their ground independently.

How does deep-dyed cobalt wool hold its colour over time with regular use?

Wool holds saturated dye well, particularly in hand-knotted construction where the dye penetrates the full fiber length. Fading over time is minimal under normal indoor conditions. Keep the rug away from prolonged direct sunlight, which affects saturated blues more than neutral tones. Annual professional cleaning maintains the fiber and colour quality.
