It is a 5x6 overdyed area rug in purple and red.

Hand-knotted in all-natural dyed, hand-spun wool, this rug is one of a kind. The rug was then sun-faded for three to six months, so the sun's energy could organically soften its original colors. Once neutralized, it was overdyed in purple and washed, revealing deep, vibrant hues that make each piece a one-of-a-kind work of art. The lighter panels took the dye brightly, and the darker ground took it deeply, which is what makes the grid stand out so clearly. You may notice lighter and deeper areas of purple across the surface. That layered, uneven color is the signature of an overdyed rug, and together with the hand-tied knots, it gives the rug its own personality. Underfoot, the wool pile is soft and dense, made to handle daily use in busy rooms.

It works well in a living room seating area, a bedroom, a dining nook, or a home office. The saturated purple and red color gives a boho chic, eclectic, or maximalist room its focal point, and it brings energy to a neutral, modern space with white walls and simple furniture. See less
