{"product_id":"black-handwoven-wool-orh20478","title":"Multi Size Hand Woven Wool Black Slate Gray Modern \u0026 Contemporary Flatweave Area Rug","description":"Bands of chevron run horizontally across this hand woven wool and cotton flatweave in a pattern that covers the entire face, with each zigzag line built from charcoal, gray, and ivory yarn. The variation within the chevron bands is what makes this rug particularly interesting up close, where the different weights of gray and charcoal thread woven through each row give the pattern a textural quality that goes beyond a simple two-tone graphic. From a distance the overall effect reads as a rich, layered gray and in different light conditions the ivory threads within the weave surface more or less prominently, keeping the rug visually dynamic throughout the day. The flatweave construction keeps the pattern crisp and the surface flat and durable, with the wool providing the structural weight and the cotton maintaining the evenness of the weave over time. The ivory fringe along one end finishes the rug in a way that is natural to the construction. Colors on screen can vary by device and display settings; the charcoal in this rug reads as a deep blue-gray in some light and closer to near-black in others, while the ivory sits in a clean, warm white register.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti Size: Multiple Size Available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Woven Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Black, Slate Gray, Ivory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.15 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: ORH20478A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Handwoven rugs are among humanity's oldest textile art form, originating in nomadic tribes all over the world, where weavers crafted them for both practical warmth and cultural expression. What makes handwoven rugs a vast and rich world unto themselves is the remarkable diversity of techniques employed across civilizations. Hand-knotting, hand-tufting, needlepoint, are all examples of hand-woven rug techniques. Together, these methods transform handwoven rugs from mere floor coverings into encyclopedias of human ingenuity, labour, and craft. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","offers":[{"title":"5x8","offer_id":52516799250725,"sku":"ORH20478A","price":349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8x10","offer_id":52516799283493,"sku":"ORH20478B","price":549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1141\/7716\/files\/A20478_20ebey.jpg?v=1780660783","url":"https:\/\/orientalrugofhouston.com\/products\/black-handwoven-wool-orh20478","provider":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
