Porvoo Hand Tufted Rug

About this rug

This hand-tufted rug has a 100% wool face in a dusty blue, drawn with a fine grid of navy lines and flecks of brighter blue. Up close, the lines mark out small squares. From across a room, the rug reads as one soft, mottled blue, which gives a room color without adding pattern. The pile is low, about 0.3 in, and the rug is about 0.5 in thick, so it sits flat and feels soft underfoot. A canvas backing holds its shape. The back has no grip, so a thin rug pad keeps it in place. Like most new wool rugs, it sheds a little at first. It makes a calm base for a living room, bedroom or study. Sizes run from a 2' x 3' at the door to a 9' x 12' under a full seating group. The 5' x 7'6" is 6 in shorter than a standard 5' x 8'. Custom sizes up to 12' x 15' and rounds can be ordered. The color is solution-dyed, so it holds up in a sunny room. Care is professional rug cleaning only.
