Description
Oversized lotus blooms in cream and ivory drift across a warm beige ground — this hand-knotted New Zealand wool rug is as durable as it is beautiful.
A rectangular area rug with a warm sandy beige/taupe background covered in large-scale, overlapping lotus or water lily floral motifs. The blooms are rendered in cream, ivory, and off-white with subtle pale blue-gray petals on some flowers, creating a soft tone-on-tone effect. The petals are bold and graphic with clean outlines, giving the design a contemporary rather than traditional feel. The pile has a medium height with a slightly sculpted, textured surface visible in the relief between the floral motifs and the background. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is serene, airy, and quietly luxurious — like a field of oversized blooms rendered in a monochromatic neutral palette.

About This Rug
The Penalosa Area Rug is a stunning hand-knotted wool piece that brings a soft, sculptural floral design to any room. Large lotus-style blooms in cream, ivory, and pale blue float across a warm beige and taupe background, creating a tone-on-tone palette that feels both serene and sophisticated. Crafted from 100% New Zealand wool with meticulous hand-knotted construction in India, this rug offers exceptional durability and a medium pile that feels genuinely plush underfoot.
The neutral earth-tone color story makes it incredibly versatile — it layers beautifully over hardwood floors and pairs effortlessly with everything from linen sofas to walnut furniture. At 0.39 inches thick, it has real substance and presence. The contemporary floral pattern is large-scale and graphic without being loud, making it ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, or dining spaces where you want texture and visual interest without overwhelming the room.
Professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the wool's natural luster and longevity.
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.
