Wool and silk rug 180×280 cream Krem

The design

The field is a classic floral lattice without a medallion: large rosettes and palmettes alternate with small flowers, all linked by fine leafy scrolls. The colours are soft — olive, honey and light brown with occasional terracotta accents. The frame has three parts: a narrow olive-brown band, a wide cream border with a flower garland and an outer band matching the inner one.

Wool and silk

The rug is handmade from wool and silk. Silk threads in the pattern add relief and sheen: flowers and leaves stand slightly above the wool field and change tone with the light. The fringes on the short sides are the ends of the warp.

Where it fits

At 182×273 cm it is a little smaller than the standard 2 by 3 metres — good beside a bed, in a medium living room or in a study. The same style in a rich red palette is the Red/Red rug 194×303. Other traditional patterns are in classic rugs, and hand-made pieces are among the handmade and designer rugs.

Care

Vacuum without a turbo brush, along the pile. Blot stains with a dry white cloth without rubbing; wet cleaning of wool and silk is best left to a professional rug cleaner. Turn the rug once a year so the pile wears evenly, and keep it out of direct sun.
