Exclusive New Rugs

We love it when brand new stock arrives and these newly commissioned rugs from the Ukraine certainly do not disappoint. We have worked closely with Olga our maker on this design and colours, the Ikat style is timeless and we have added a chunky looped bobble to give added detail. The rugs are made from sheep reared on the High Carpathian mountains, the landscape is intrinsic to the making process. Cold river water is used to soften the wool and make the natural dyes. Once the rug is woven the rugs are washed and agitated in the running water to preshrink and soften the rug.
