Description
A hand-knotted 100% wool Persian medallion rug in slate gray, rust, and cream — artisan-crafted, built for high traffic, and rich with traditional detail.
A rectangular hand-knotted wool rug with a cool slate-gray central field. A large, ornate central medallion in deep rust-red and ivory sits at the center, surrounded by flowing cream floral scrollwork that extends across the gray field. The scrollwork features delicate leaf and petal motifs in cream, beige, and soft brown. A wide decorative border frames the rug in muted teal-gray, filled with repeating floral and vine patterns in cream and rust. A narrow inner border in cream separates the field from the outer border. The pile is low and tight, giving the surface a smooth, dense appearance with subtle texture. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is of a classic Persian Isfahan-style rug in a restrained, sophisticated palette.

About This Rug
The Auburn Area Rug is a beautifully crafted hand-knotted wool rug that brings the timeless elegance of Persian design into any room. Its slate-gray field is anchored by a striking central medallion in rust and cream, surrounded by intricate floral scrollwork and a detailed teal-accented border. The earthy palette of gray, beige, cream, rust, and warm brown creates a sophisticated, grounded look that works equally well in traditional and transitional interiors.
Made from 100% wool using time-honored hand-knotting techniques, this rug is built to last — wool's natural resilience makes it ideal for high-traffic areas like living rooms, dining rooms, and hallways. At 0.25 inches thick, it lays flat and low, making it a great candidate for layering over larger natural fiber rugs. The eco-friendly wool construction means no synthetic off-gassing, and the tight hand-knotted weave holds up beautifully over years of use.
Whether you're furnishing a classic study, a warm dining room, or a transitional living space, the Auburn brings depth, character, and artisan craftsmanship to the floor.
Care & Cleaning
To keep your wool or cotton rugs in top shape, follow these steps:
- Begin by blotting any stains with a dry cotton or white paper towel.
- Use a blunt instrument to carefully remove food or debris.
- Combine a minimal quantity of dish soap with a cup of cold water. Use this solution and a clean sponge to gently clean the stain. Avoid over-saturating the rug. Blot the cleaned area dry with a towel.
- Keep away from excessive heat or agitation as wool and cotton rugs are susceptible to bleeding and staining.
- For the best results, we advise a yearly professional cleaning.
