Wool and silk rug beige and gold Linkoln

Composition

The model is built on the contrast between an empty centre and a rich edge. The field is pale, almost sand-coloured, and the flowers on it are spread freely rather than forming a continuous carpet of pattern. The border, by contrast, takes a noticeable share of the area and is drawn large: a golden ground with dark green and ochre chrysanthemums and cream palmettes. The effect is to outline the zone — the rug works as a frame for the furniture group.

A rug for the living room

250×300 cm is a convenient living-room format. It is large enough for the front legs of a sofa and two armchairs to stand on it, while still leaving a strip of bare floor around the perimeter. A pale field adds visual volume: a room feels wider with this rug than with a dark one of the same size. A coffee table sits entirely within the uncluttered centre.

Material

Wool with silk inserts, hand-knotted. Silk runs through the petals and outlines, so the border clearly catches raking light. The wool ground provides resilience: the pile recovers after furniture is moved.

Care

A pale field needs attention: vacuum regularly, blot spills at once, and book professional cleaning.
