Description
Hand-knotted in 100% wool, the Cottontown pairs a soft periwinkle blue floral pattern with a warm beige ground for a faded, timeless look that elevates any traditional or transitional space.
A rectangular hand-knotted wool area rug with a warm sandy beige ground and an allover repeating floral and botanical motif rendered in soft periwinkle blue — the pattern has a gently faded, washed-out quality as if sun-kissed over time. The design features clusters of stylized flowers and scrolling leaf forms arranged in a loose medallion-like grid across the entire field, with a subtle thin border framing the composition. The pile is medium height with a slightly textured, handmade surface that shows the character of the knotting. Short ivory fringe runs along both short ends of the rug. The overall impression is of a quietly elegant traditional rug with a soft, vintage-inspired palette — neither stark nor overly ornate.

About This Rug
The Cottontown Area Rug is a beautifully hand-knotted wool rug that brings timeless traditional charm to any room. Crafted in India with 100% wool, it features an allover floral and botanical motif rendered in soft periwinkle blue against a warm sandy beige ground — the kind of faded, lived-in palette that feels both classic and effortlessly current. The pattern repeats across the field in a medallion-like arrangement, framed by a subtle border and finished with delicate fringe along the short edges.
At 0.24 inches of medium pile, it has a satisfying texture underfoot without being overly thick. The slightly distressed, washed-out quality of the color gives it a vintage sensibility that pairs beautifully with both traditional and transitional interiors. Because it's hand-knotted, this rug is built to last — wool construction means natural resilience and a surface that holds up to everyday foot traffic.
Note that professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the hand-knotted construction. Whether you're anchoring a living room seating area or adding warmth to a bedroom, the Cottontown brings a quiet sophistication that only a handmade wool rug can deliver.
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.
