This abstract modern Indian carpet is handknotted with pure wool and has an array of restrained soft neutral stone and grey hues which are ideal for a sophisticated minimalist space.  It is extremely atmospheric with it's sense of fluidity, softness of tone and pastel-like layering. 

What are the Design Characteristics of this Carpet?

This handmade carpet is created with pure wool individual knots woven onto a cotton foundation. It is created from traditional hand weaving techniques that have remained unchanged for millenia. This carpet is an example of how modern carpets remain woven art forms and that skilled weavers and designers can create atmospheric pieces suitable for different interior spaces, lifestyles and design concepts.

This carpet has a veiled layering design and a sense of spaciousness; moving away from traditional formats of medallions, borders, and floral or geometric patterning. The blurred edges and softened smokiness give a feeling of soft expressive movement.

 It is not only softening on the eye and soul but also underfoot!

What are the Neutral and Versatile Colourways of this Carpet?

Elements of design abstraction also include tonally neutral colourways suitable for modern interior schemes to give a sophisticated minimalist style. This is achieved by the use of closely related subtle tones as seen in this carpet. Restrained and understated colours are to be discovered: ivory creams, light beiges, stone greys and taupe.

What Stylistic Mood will this Carpet Create?

This atmospheric carpet gives concepts of restfulness, contemplation, abstract expressionism, calmness, as well as comfort.

Frequently asked questions about Indian rugs

Oriental rugs are renowned for their longevity and can often last for generations. 

I’d like to buy it, is the rug shown the rug I’ll get?

Yes, all of our rugs are handmade and the vast majority are one-of-a-kind. This is the exact rug you will receive. No substitutions.

I’m interested in this rug, but would like to see it before I decide – can I come and see it at your shop?

Of course! All of the rugs displayed and shown as in stock on our website are available to view and buy in-store.

How quickly will I receive my rug and how much does delivery cost?

We aim to dispatch our Rugs as quickly as possible. Deliveries in the UK are generally achieved in 2-3 working days. Within the UK there is no carriage charge for rugs.

I’m not located in the UK, will you send it to destinations outside of the UK?

Please contact us, referencing which rug you would like to buy and your delivery address to find out shipping costs.

How long will my rug last?

Hand-knotted Rugs and Handwoven Rugs are extremely long-lasting items. If properly looked after Oriental Rugs can outlive their owner and maybe even last for generations. In many cases rugs improve with age.

Will the colours of my rug fade?

Handmade Oriental rugs will soften in colour over time. Of course, like any textile, if the rug is used in an area of strong sunlight, such as in a Conservatory for instance, the fading process will be more rapid. During days of strong sunshine, it is good practice to draw the curtains or blinds to keep your Oriental rug looking at its best.

Will the colours transfer onto the flooring underneath?

This is a tricky one to answer! If only we had a crystal ball! There is a risk. Our rugs are all handmade and made with artisan dyes. All of our rugs are thoroughly washed prior to export and any excess dye should come out in the washing process. However, on the odd occasion, the dye can still sometimes transfer. This phenomenon is increased by humidity and temperature, and is regrettably irreversible. If you are concerned about this possibility, perhaps consider using an Underlay to put a barrier between the rug and the flooring/fitted carpet underneath.

How do I care for my Indian Rug

They are easy to care for, but here’s a few helpful pointers to keep your new Indian rug looking great: 

Vacuum

Hoover it regularly – perhaps once a week. This is good practice as tiny dirt particles can cause premature wear. Vacuum it with just the nozzle suction, as rotating brushes can be abrasive. Try to keep the vacuum cleaner away from the fringes as this is probably the weakest point on an Oriental rug; fringes and vacuum cleaners don’t mix!

Rotate

It is a good idea to rotate your Afghan rug on occasion. This will help prevent areas of concentrated wear. Foot shuffling when watching the TV is a prime culprit! Rotating your rug will also help to even-out any incremental changes in colour from exposure to sunlight.

Blot

Any spills should be blotted immediately: blot with kitchen towel or clean un-dyed absorbent cloth; avoid rubbing or scrubbing which can spread the spill or push the spill deeper into the rug.

Use a Rug Underlay

A good rug underlay will keep the rug in place, thereby preventing uneven wear and will help the rug keep from going out of shape.

Professional Cleaning

This is something that is required infrequently, perhaps every 3-5 years depending on use. Please contact us if you would like to have your rug cleaned as we offer a Rug Cleaning Service.
