Description
A tone-on-tone brown damask in 100% hand-knotted New Zealand wool — the Heywood brings quiet, old-world elegance to any traditional or transitional room.
A rectangular area rug featuring an allover tone-on-tone damask pattern rendered entirely in warm brown and taupe tones. The field is a mid-tone taupe-brown, overlaid with a dense, repeating damask motif of scrolling acanthus leaves, floral medallions, and symmetrical botanical flourishes in a slightly deeper chocolate brown. The pattern repeats vertically and horizontally across the entire surface with no visible border, creating a seamless, wallpaper-like effect. The pile is medium height with a smooth, slightly lustrous wool surface that gives the pattern subtle dimensionality. Edges appear cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. At a glance, the rug reads as a rich, warm brown with an elegant traditional pattern that reveals its full detail up close.

About This Rug
The Heywood Area Rug is a stunning example of traditional craftsmanship — hand-knotted from 100% New Zealand wool in a rich tone-on-tone damask pattern that feels both timeless and quietly sophisticated. The allover design plays out in warm brown and taupe tones, with darker scrollwork and floral motifs layered over a slightly lighter field, creating depth and texture without relying on contrast. Because the palette is so cohesive, this rug works beautifully in spaces where you want pattern without visual noise — a formal dining room, a classic study, or a living room anchored by rich wood furniture.
The medium pile (0.31 inches) offers a comfortable underfoot feel while keeping the intricate pattern crisp and readable. Hand-knotted construction means this rug is built to last for decades, not seasons — it's the kind of piece you invest in once and pass down. Professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the New Zealand wool fibers.
If you're looking for a rug that brings warmth, elegance, and old-world craftsmanship to your home, the Heywood delivers on every count.
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.
