Celeste Rugs 8'3"x9'9" Hand Knotted Transitional Peshawar Beige, Gray Wool Area Rug

Stacked down a pale blue-gray field, three round cream medallions anchor this hand-knotted wool Peshawar rug. Seen here are soft geometric key shapes in the corners and a Greek key border in tan and gold around the design. The tone-on-tone drawing is subtle, so the rug reads as calm and balanced. A dense pile springs back after foot traffic on this transitional Peshawar rug.

Individually woven by skilled artisans, each rug is a truly one-of-a-kind piece. This authentic craftsmanship results in a distinct work of art built to last for generations.

Construction: Hand-knotted from wool, selected for its resilience and its ability to hold rich color and definition across the pattern.

Care & Maintenance: Vacuum regularly using suction only, avoiding a rotating beater bar. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth, and rotate the rug periodically to distribute wear evenly. Professional cleaning is recommended to keep the pile looking its best.

Story Behind the Art: Hand-knotted rugs are Pakistan's second-largest cottage and small industry that began as early as the 11th century under the Mughal rule. The craftsmen have the capacity to produce any type of rug using all the popular motifs of guls, medallions, paisleys (botehs), traceries, and geometric designs in various combinations. While the "stone washes" are used to fade and soften colors, the Peshawar style is characterized by a thinly sheered pile, large print designs, and most predominantly, their antique ivory and sometimes golden tones.
