Description
A luxurious antique styled rug, made from high quality hand spun pure wool and hand woven by highly skilled artisan weavers. The timeless design is characterised and inspired by classic central Asian Oushak and Heriz patterns using warm neutrals to deep saturated rust tones with special finishing techniques to create a subtle sheen appearance. This rug has been knotted by hand, the oldest and most individual way a rug can be made. This involves an intricate process of weaving by hand on a loom where yarns are tied one at a time, giving the rug a durable construction.

Our Stylist Says
I love this rug for its vintage-inspired, warm-toned design that adds character to a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in both traditional and eclectic schemes, creating a cosy focal point in living rooms or bedrooms. Its medallion pattern offers a touch of sophistication without feeling overly formal, making it versatile for layered styling. Practical tips include pairing it with neutral furniture to let the pattern stand out, or contrasting it with bolder accessories for an eclectic look. Given its size, it’s ideal for defining a seating area or adding warmth to a larger space. Its durable design also makes it a sensible choice for high-traffic areas, blending style with practicality seamlessly.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
