Description
A hand-knotted 100% wool rug with a beautifully faded Persian design in earthy greens and warm browns — built to become a family heirloom.
A rectangular hand-knotted wool area rug dominated by muted olive and moss green tones, layered with warm brown, soft beige, and subtle gray accents distributed across the entire field. The surface features an allover traditional Persian-style floral and abstract scrollwork pattern rendered in a heavily distressed, faded finish — as though the design has been gently worn over decades, with motifs blending softly into one another rather than appearing crisp or sharp. The pile is medium height with a slightly textured, hand-crafted surface that shows the natural variation of hand-knotted wool. Short, natural-colored fringe edges run along the two short ends of the rug. The overall visual impression is of a warm, antique, heirloom-quality piece with a quietly complex, earthy color story.

About This Rug
The Caratunk Area Rug is a hand-knotted wool masterpiece that brings the timeless beauty of traditional Persian design into your home with a beautifully worn, distressed finish. Dominated by rich earthy greens, warm browns, and soft beige tones, the intricate floral and abstract motifs appear gently faded — as if this rug has been cherished for generations. Crafted in India from 100% wool with meticulous hand-knotted construction, it offers exceptional durability underfoot while the medium pile (0.38 inches) delivers a satisfying, cushioned feel.
Delicate fringe edges complete the look, adding an authentic artisan touch that elevates any space. This rug works beautifully in living rooms, studies, or dining rooms where you want warmth and character without a loud statement. The muted, earthy palette makes it incredibly versatile — it pairs naturally with leather furniture, dark wood tones, and warm-toned walls.
Because it's hand-knotted wool, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve its heirloom quality. If you're looking for a rug that tells a story and only gets better with age, the Caratunk is it.
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.
