Description
A hand-tufted 100% wool rug with an organic charcoal and cream grid — understated enough to go anywhere, interesting enough to be the room's quiet focal point.
A rectangular hand-tufted wool area rug with a deep charcoal gray field covered by an allover irregular grid pattern formed by thin, slightly organic cream-colored lines. The grid lines are not perfectly straight — they have a subtle hand-drawn quality that gives the rug a warm, artisanal character rather than a mechanical look. The cream lines divide the surface into roughly equal rectangular cells, creating a checkered or trellis-like effect across the entire rug. The pile is medium height with a slightly textured, looped-cut wool surface that catches light softly. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is calm, modern, and quietly textural — a sophisticated neutral that reads as both contemporary and timeless.
- Hand-tufted 100% wool — crafted in India for lasting quality
- Organic charcoal gray and cream grid pattern
- Medium pile at 0.28" — plush but not overly thick
- 0.51" total thickness with canvas backing for stability
- Versatile neutral palette suits modern, transitional, and Scandi styles

About This Rug
The Yates Area Rug brings a quietly sophisticated, modern edge to any room with its hand-tufted wool construction and striking grid pattern. A deep charcoal gray base is crisscrossed by irregular cream lines, creating an organic, slightly imperfect checkerboard that feels both contemporary and warm. Crafted in India from 100% wool, this medium-pile rug (0.28" pile, 0.51" total thickness) offers a plush, comfortable feel underfoot while standing up to everyday use.
The hand-tufted construction gives each piece a subtle textural variation that machine-made rugs simply can't replicate. Its neutral gray and cream palette makes it incredibly versatile — equally at home in a minimalist living room, a Scandinavian-inspired bedroom, or a transitional home office. The canvas backing provides stability, and a rug pad is recommended to keep it in place.
Spot clean with water only to maintain its natural wool beauty. If you're looking for a rug that's understated but genuinely interesting up close, the Yates delivers exactly that.
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.
