When exploring traditional wool & silk blend, it is essential to understand both the construction and the application. Traditional rugs span centuries of design history — Persian medallions, Mughal florals, Heriz geometrics, Caucasian Kazaks and Indian Agra designs. They bring instant timeless character to a room and pair beautifully with both classical and modern furniture.
Coupled with this, our wool-and-silk blend rugs offer the best of both fibres — the durability and resilience of pure wool combined with the lustrous highlights of silk. Master weavers use wool for the structural pile and accent silk in motifs, medallions or borders, creating a layered visual effect that shifts as you walk around the room.
