About this rug
One tribal medallion in faded black sits on an ivory ground, with grey in the detail around it. The pile is low and the surface reads flat and smooth. It is hand-knotted in India from wool, so the fading in the medallion varies a little from rug to rug.
Living rooms and bedrooms with white walls, black frames or plain timber. The strong contrast shows every crumb, so it works better in a quiet room than a busy kitchen-diner.

Measuring. Leave 30–45 cm (12–18 in) of floor showing around the rug. Under a dining table, allow 60 cm (24 in) beyond each side so chairs stay on the rug when pulled out.
Handmade rugs can vary slightly from the stated size. Need a different size? Ask us about the measurements you need and we’ll confirm the options.
Care
- Vacuum once a week on suction only, with the beater bar off.
- Blot spills straight away with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub.
- Wool sheds a little in the first weeks. Regular vacuuming clears it.
- Snip any loose end level with the pile. Never pull it.
- Turn the rug every six months so it wears and fades evenly.
- Use a rug pad on hard floors so the rug stays flat and does not slip.
- For a deep clean, use a professional rug cleaner.
