Hand loomed from a wool and jute blend with a cotton foundation, this textured grid rug is built using a loop and cut pile technique. The color is a medium gray with tan running through it, and it is worth being clear that this reads as a genuinely dark, cool-toned neutral (screens often pull the tan component forward and make it appear warmer and lighter than it actually is). The wool and jute construction gives the pile a natural, grounded character that is firmer underfoot than pure wool, and that firmness translates directly into durability under regular foot traffic. No pattern to align and no dye lot variation to manage makes it one of the more straightforward handmade rugs to live with day to day.
