Florentine Gold Gabbeh, Hand-Knotted Afghan Wool Rug

• Material: 100% hand-spun highland wool, hand-knotted
• Vacuum regularly without a beater bar, and rotate the rug periodically for even wear
• Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth; never rub
• Professional rug cleaning recommended; avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing
• Use a rug pad to prevent slipping and reduce wear
• Light shedding is natural for hand-knotted wool and eases with time

This design looks to the grand damasks of Renaissance Italy and Spain, where bold scrolling acanthus and palmettes cover the whole field. Worked in warm gold over a soft slate-blue ground, it reads as both dramatic and surprisingly easy to live with.

The blue-and-gold pairing is timelessly elegant, equally at home in a classic or a more modern, eclectic room. As a hand-knotted one-of-a-kind, no other rug shares its exact scrollwork and shading.
