A lush blend of texture and minimalist design, this runner carpet is hand-knotted in Afghanistan from pure wool. Voiced in a sophisticated palette of natural hues, this piece offers a bohemian aesthetic with contemporary appeal.

On one end of the carpet, you will note that one side is lighter in shade whereas the other side will be a darker shade. This is due to the direction that its wool pile (nap) is facing. When anyone stands directly in front of the pile facing its fibers, it looks darker and vice-versa. This feature is one of the most fascinating parts of a handmade rug. It provides a homeowner the opportunity to change up the look of their space just by changing the way the rug is placed in the room.

Materials & Craftsmanship:

This diligently hand-knotted area rug is made of 100% pure lamb’s wool. Wool is a natural material, representing a healthy choice that is environmentally friendly with a long list of benefits. The pile of this wool rug is hygienic and non-allergenic, as the natural pile also deters the growth of bacteria and dust mites. It represents a great choice for asthma sufferers due to its natural filtering ability. The rug feels soft under the foot while remaining wear-resistant and long-lasting. With proper maintenance tailored to its needs, this rug can last over 75 years. Homeowners benefit from an extra grip which is important for balance, good posture, and accident prevention. Moreover, wool rugs are flame resistant. Cleaning is also easier due to a protective layer that pushes dirt up and resists staining. In fact, it will trap dirt and dust until it is vacuumed. A wool rug is also a great option for adding the look and feel of luxury to any space, as wool in itself is a luxurious material.

The dyes used to produce this carpet are eco-friendly vegetable dyes that enrich the yarn with a natural and vibrant luster. Vegetable dyes are also referred to as natural dyes and are superior to "synthetic" dyes. In contrast to rugs woven with synthetic colors, this carpet will last for generations due to the high-quality materials and the skilled craftsmanship invested in it, bringing warmth and elegance to almost any space.
