Shaped by a refined transitional sensibility, this 2'7"x8'5" hand-knotted wool transitional runner presents a vertically oriented composition designed to guide the eye through rhythm, symmetry, and softened ornamentation. The rug field is organized along a central axis of stylized floral medallions and rosette forms rendered in muted mint and pale green, their shapes gently articulated against a light gray ground that keeps the design open and airy. Surrounding these focal elements, delicate vine scrolls and small geometric accents appear in layered tones of charcoal and moss, adding contrast while maintaining a restrained, balanced visual flow. Subtle horizontal banding and lightly distressed detailing introduce texture and depth, giving the runner a gently aged character without diminishing clarity. The border frames the design with repeating floral and geometric motifs in gray, mint, and charcoal, providing structure while echoing the interior palette. Hand knotted in wool on a cotton foundation, the runner offers durability with a refined feel and is especially well suited for hallways, entryways, kitchens, or narrow transitional spaces where a calm, elongated design can add visual interest without overwhelming the area.

Story Behind the Art: Transitional rugs emerged as a natural evolution between traditional and contemporary design, blending the ornamental richness of classical weaving with a lighter, more modern sensibility. Drawing inspiration from Persian and European motifs, these rugs often reinterpret familiar elements, such as medallions, florals, and vine scrolls, through simplified forms, softened symmetry, or intentionally distressed finishes. The result is a design that feels elegant yet relaxed, retaining structure without the formality of strictly traditional rugs. Color palettes tend to be more subdued and versatile, favoring muted neutrals, washed blues, grays, and earth tones that allow the patterns to integrate seamlessly into modern interiors. These rugs commonly feature balanced compositions with less visual density, giving the eye room to rest while still offering depth and texture.
