Description
A deep black hand-knotted wool rug with a tone-on-tone Moroccan diamond trellis — bold, plush, and built to last. The Sandyford is a statement piece that never shouts.
A large rectangular hand-knotted rug with a near-total deep black ground covering approximately 85% of the surface. An allover repeating Moroccan diamond trellis pattern is rendered in slightly lighter charcoal and cool gray tones, creating a tone-on-tone effect where the geometric lattice is visible but not high-contrast — it reads as etched or embossed rather than boldly printed. The diamonds are formed by thin, slightly irregular lines consistent with hand-knotted construction, giving the pattern a handcrafted, organic quality. The pile is visibly high and dense with a subtle sheen from the viscose content, giving the surface a slight luster that shifts with light. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is moody, sophisticated, and quietly geometric — a dark statement rug with refined detail.

About This Rug
The Sandyford Premium Rug is a striking hand-knotted piece that commands attention with its deep, near-total black field and an allover Moroccan diamond trellis pattern rendered in subtle charcoal and gray tones. The contrast is intentionally understated — the geometric lattice emerges from the dark ground like etched silver, giving the rug a sophisticated, tone-on-tone quality that works beautifully in both modern and bohemian interiors. Crafted from a 70% wool and 30% viscose blend, the pile sits at a generous 0.65 inches, delivering a plush, cushioned feel underfoot with a slight sheen from the viscose that catches light and adds depth to the pattern.
Hand-knotted construction means this rug is built to last — the tight, dense weave holds up to everyday foot traffic while maintaining its shape and texture over time. At 0.9 inches thick, it adds real substance to any room. Whether anchoring a living room seating arrangement, warming up a bedroom, or layering over a larger flatweave, the Sandyford brings a bold yet refined energy that pairs effortlessly with natural wood tones, concrete, and matte metal accents.
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.
