The pattern runs across the whole field, so it looks balanced from any angle. This chic transitional 9x12 area rug comes in gold and blue.

This one-of-a-kind, handmade wool rug is hand knotted from hand-spun, natural vegetable dyed wool, a blend of merino, New Zealand, and Ghazni wool. The vegetable dyes, extracted from local plants, color the gold field and the blue border, with red and brown in the details. Look for the abrash, a gentle shift in shade within a single color. It tends to show most in larger areas of one color, such as the gold field here, and it happens 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. After knotting, the pile is trimmed to a moderate thickness, then stone-washed and sun-dried, which gives this 9x12 rug its natural sheen. The result is a dense, even wool pile that feels soft underfoot, springs back under furniture, and stands up to everyday foot traffic. Because the pile lies in one direction, the gold field looks a little deeper from one end of the rug and lighter from the other.

Use it as a large living room rug, under a dining table that seats eight, or in a great room. The contrast of gold and blue, with touches of red and brown, gives a boho chic or eclectic room its focal point and adds energy to a contemporary space. The flowers soften clean-lined, modern furniture.
