Eclectic Ziegler Vivan Brown/Gray Wool Rug - 12'4'' x 15'0''

A very faint, tone-on-tone pattern sits on a soft brown-gray field. With no set pattern, it works almost like a solid and lets the texture of the wool show. It is an eclectic transitional 12x15 area rug in brown and gray.

Hand knotted and one of a kind, this wool rug is made from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The brown of the field and the gray of the border come from vegetable dyes extracted from local plants, and gold and beige pick out the smaller motifs. You may notice an abrash in the brown field, a soft shift in shade within a single color. It comes from hand-spun wool taking natural dye slightly differently from batch to batch, and it is one of the signs of a true handmade rug. With so little pattern, the texture and sheen of the wool do the work. Once the 12x15 rug is off the loom, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried for a natural sheen. What you get is a dense wool pile with a soft hand, low enough to sit neatly under chairs and doors and sturdy enough for busy rooms. The natural lanolin in the wool helps the pile shed dust and resist everyday soiling, so it stays fresh with regular vacuuming.

It holds a full living room seating group, a dining table for six to eight, or a spacious primary bedroom. In brown and gray, with touches of gold and beige, this rug suits earthy, organic modern, and Japandi interiors, and pairs well with leather and walnut. With so little pattern, it layers easily in minimalist, Japandi, and quiet-luxury rooms.
