Anouk Hand Tufted Rug

About this rug

Rows of upright flowering plants stand on a warm cream field, drawn in the manner of Indian block prints. Sprays of muted terracotta and dusty rose blooms alternate with round pale peach flowers on sage stems. A layered border of an ivory sprig band, a pale green scalloped band and a plain sand edge frames the field. Every plant stands upright, so the design has a top. In warm light the cream reads closer to light beige. It is hand tufted in India with a 100% wool face and a canvas back. The low 0.28 in pile has a pebbly, looped look, like a hooked rug, and feels firm rather than plush underfoot. It is 0.51 in thick, with no fringe. It suits a cottage or soft traditional living room, bedroom or dining room. The 8' × 10' fits an 84" sofa with chairs, front legs on, or a queen bed set crosswise; the 9' × 12' takes a larger group, a king bed or an eight-seat table. It is rated for high traffic, but the small loops can catch pet claws. Spot clean only, with water only; it is not washable. New wool sheds at first, so vacuum without a beater bar. It is not fade resistant, so keep it out of strong sun. The canvas back has no grip: use a thin grip pad, and check the gap under nearby doors. It arrives rolled; the 9' × 12' weighs about 70 lb.
