Classic Ziegler Denita Blue/ Gold Wool Rug - 7'11'' x 9'6''

Rows of small multicolor leaf sprays fill a dark blue field, framed by a gold-toned floral border. The all-over design has no center, which makes furniture placement easy. It is a classic transitional 8x10 area rug in blue and gold.

This handmade wool rug is one of a kind, hand knotted from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool in a mix of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The vegetable dyes, extracted from local plants, give the blue field and the gold border their depth. The blue field may show an abrash, a gentle change of shade within one color. It is normal in handmade rugs, because hand-spun wool takes natural dye a little differently from batch to batch. The curves of the flowers and vines are drawn knot by knot, which keeps their outlines sharp. Once the 8x10 rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. The finished pile is dense and even, soft to walk on, and resilient enough to recover from furniture and daily use. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.

Use it as a living room rug, under a dining table, or in a spacious bedroom. In blue and gold this rug suits eclectic, bohemian, and maximalist interiors, and it brings color to a neutral, modern room. The floral pattern leans transitional and suits cottage and grandmillennial rooms too.
