Description
A rich mauve-purple hand-knotted rug with subtle ribbed stripes and a soft wool-viscose blend — understated elegance that transforms any room.
A rectangular area rug in a rich, dusty mauve-purple tone covering the entire surface uniformly. The pattern consists of very subtle horizontal ribbed stripes running the full width of the rug — these are tone-on-tone, created by the texture of the weave rather than a color contrast, and are only clearly visible upon close inspection or when light rakes across the surface. The pile is medium height with a smooth, slightly lustrous finish — the viscose content gives certain rows a faint silky sheen compared to the matte wool rows, creating a quiet visual rhythm. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression at a glance is of a solid, sophisticated purple rug with a refined textural depth.

About This Rug
The Meador Area Rug is a quietly stunning piece that earns a second look. Its rich mauve-purple tone is woven with subtle horizontal ribbed stripes, creating a tone-on-tone texture that feels both modern and refined. Hand knotted from a 50/50 blend of wool and viscose, the surface has a gentle sheen — the viscose catches light softly while the wool adds warmth and resilience underfoot.
At 0.31 inches of medium pile, it's plush enough to feel luxurious without overwhelming a space. The minimalist striped pattern makes it incredibly versatile — it works beautifully as a statement piece in a neutral room or as a grounding layer beneath bolder furniture. Crafted in India with hand-knotted construction, this rug is built to last and develops character over time.
It's best suited for living rooms, bedrooms, or dining areas where you want a sophisticated color pop without a busy pattern. Professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the viscose sheen and wool integrity. If you're looking for a rug that's understated but genuinely beautiful up close, the Meador delivers.
Care & Cleaning
Viscose rugs, due to their wood cellulose fiber construction, require special care:
- Since these rugs absorb moisture easily, cleaning is generally not recommended.
- Should cleaning become necessary, dry cleaning is the preferred method. However, always consult with the dry cleaner as some chemicals can discolor the fibers.
- Avoid spot cleaning with water as the cellulose fibers can discolor or turn yellow when wet and may result in stains post-cleaning.
- Lighter colors and large, solid areas are more prone to visible staining.
- To minimize the need for cleaning, it's advisable to place viscose rugs in low-traffic areas.
