Viborg Hand Tufted Rug

About this rug

This rug takes the Oushak layout, a star-centered medallion with open palmettes, paired leaves and thin vines, and sets it in sand, warm ivory and soft sage on a muted slate blue field. A sand border with an ivory vine frames it, and the design mirrors both ways, so it has no top. The field is a gentle slate blue-gray: two of seven buyers say it is not a true navy, and it looks close to navy only in dim light. It is hand-tufted in India with a 100% wool face on a canvas back. The dense cut pile is 0.39 in high on a rug 0.87 in thick, matte and soft underfoot, with no fringe. New wool sheds at first, and it is not solution-dyed, so keep it out of strong sun. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, studies and dining rooms. The size sold as 8x10 measures 7'6" × 9'6", and the largest round and square are 9'9" across. At 0.87 in it is thick, so check the gap under any door it must pass; most doors clear about 0.4 in. The large sizes are heavy enough to need two people. Spot clean only, with mild detergent; it is not washable. It has no grip back, so lay it on a cushioned felt pad cut 2 in smaller than the rug each way.
