Hand-knotted wool with cotton backing means it's built to handle real foot traffic—the multi-color palette helps disguise the inevitable wear patterns that come with daily life. At 244x305cm, it anchors larger living rooms or dining spaces comfortably, leaving 40-50cm of floor visible around furniture edges. The abstract botanical motifs and border framing work particularly well in rooms mixing old and new pieces, bridging contemporary sofas with antique side tables. Just note: hand-knotted wool needs regular vacuuming and professional cleaning every few years to maintain its texture.
