Description
Rich burgundy and red damask motifs bloom across a warm, distressed beige field in this hand-knotted 100% New Zealand Wool rug — traditional craftsmanship with a painterly, modern edge.
A rectangular hand-knotted wool area rug featuring an allover damask floral pattern in deep burgundy and crimson red, layered over a warm golden beige and tan field. The pattern has a distinctly distressed, painterly quality — the motifs appear to bleed and fade into the background, creating an abstract, almost watercolor-like effect rather than a crisp traditional repeat. Dark brown and rust-orange tones add depth throughout, with the center of the rug appearing slightly lighter and more faded than the edges, enhancing the antique feel. The pile is medium height with a slightly textured, matte wool surface. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is of a richly colored, aged traditional rug with an artistic, semi-abstract quality.

About This Rug
The Northrop Area Rug is a stunning hand-knotted wool piece that blends traditional damask motifs with a beautifully distressed, almost painterly finish. Rich burgundy and deep red floral damask patterns cascade across a warm beige and golden-tan field, with earthy rust and burnt orange tones adding depth and warmth throughout. Crafted from 100% New Zealand wool using time-honored hand-knotting techniques in India, this rug offers exceptional durability and a satisfying medium pile underfoot.
The intentionally faded, abstract quality of the pattern gives it a transitional appeal — equally at home in a classically furnished living room or a more eclectic, bohemian space. At 0.24 inches pile height, it's substantial without being bulky, and the tight hand-knotted construction means it's built to handle years of foot traffic. The warm earth-tone palette — burgundy, rust, brown, and tan — makes it a natural anchor for rooms with wood furniture, leather seating, or jewel-toned accents.
Professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the wool's natural luster and the rug's rich color story.
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.
