An introduction to master rug weaving from India. What distinguishes these hand-knotted patterns, are the large floral palmettes. The new innovation of this rug collection is the texture and colors. The antique effect in this rug is achieved with a combination of the finest quality spun wool together with a simple soap wash and new contemporary colors. The wool is from a mixture of native Indian wool and New Zealand wool. The wool in this rug retains its natural lanolin, which one can feel by hand, in the pile.
