Essen Wool Rug

Our favorite thing about this rug is how it looks as if it was created with sweeping paint-strokes. The muted tones and subtle gradations in the pattern make it a uniquely elegant addition to your room.

Due to the handmade quality of our rugs, they may vary slightly in size and/or color. Rug pattern is scaled to rug size and may vary from the images shown.

 

• 100% Wool: The most commonly used natural fiber in rug production. Wool usually refers to fibers from sheep. Fiber diameter is the single most important characteristic, determining price and quality.
• Hand-Hooked: Well-crafted rugs that are hooked and tufted by hand also deliver excellent resilience and captivating designs. Using a single-needle tufting tool or hand hook, an artisan wraps – rather than knots – yarn through a canvas backing, which is then protected by a layer of latex and a secondary backing that helps anchor the stitches. In hand-hooked designs, the looped yarn creates the surface of the rug, and can be manipulated to achieve different effects. Larger loops deliver a plush, heavily textured rug, while smaller loops allow for intricate detail.
• Backing: Cotton Canvas
