{"product_id":"emerald-handknotted-wool-aor22005","title":"Emerald Blush 5'9''x8'10'' Transitional Tibetan Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug","description":"Meet a Tibetan Oriental area rug that looks as if it has been loved for generations. Emerald and blush tones sit within a palette of ivory and gold with an aged cast, creating the impression of a carpet with years behind it in this transitional hand knotted wool rug. Square medallions, each held inside a key pattern frame, march in rows across the center, while peach accents and scrolls in lilac gray repeat around the border to keep the eye moving. The color has a gentle, even wash, and the surface feels smooth and velvety under the hand. Skilled artisans tie the wool by hand, building a firm pile and finishing the ends with a short natural fringe. The result is a vintage-inspired area rug that adds pattern without loud contrast. Place it in a living room to soften a plain floor, roll it out in a bedroom for a calm welcome each morning, or use it in a dining room, entryway or home office where a quiet backdrop is wanted. Easy colors and a relaxed, lived-in mood make this transitional piece simple to enjoy for years.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 5'9\"x8'10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Emerald, Blush, Ivory, Mint, Navy, Red, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.5 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: AOR22005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Tibetan rug weaving reflects a centuries-old tradition in which textiles served both practical and decorative roles. Historic designs drew inspiration from geometric forms, symbolic imagery, mythical creatures, floral elements, and patterns found in the natural world. The tradition entered an important new chapter after 1959, when Tibetan weaving communities expanded into Nepal and India and the craft developed for a broader international market. By the 1970s, Tibetan-style rugs had become increasingly recognized worldwide, with Nepalese artisans playing an important role in preserving and developing established weaving methods. A defining characteristic is the Tibetan knot, a distinctive slit-loop technique used to create a substantial pile with noticeable depth, softness, and texture. Contemporary Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs continue this design heritage through everything from branching florals and symbolic animal motifs to geometric compositions and free-form modern patterns, allowing traditional craftsmanship to adapt naturally to contemporary interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Oriental Rug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68077698121948,"sku":"AOR22005","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/1996\/6684\/files\/A22005.jpg?v=1793946910","url":"https:\/\/americanorientalrug.com\/products\/emerald-handknotted-wool-aor22005","provider":"americanorientalrug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
