Long wool strands in brown, taupe, ivory, and gray blend into a heathered shag with a natural, tweed-like look. Hand-woven from wool, the 4-inch high pile stands tall and soft underfoot. Suited to living rooms, bedrooms, and lounges. Each rug is handmade over roughly four months, so slight variations in color and texture add to its character. A cotton backing helps the rug stay stable on the floor. Wool sheds lightly at first; shake out gently and spot clean with a damp cloth.
