Gateway Steel

With modern and traditional elements, this sophisticated hand-knotted wool rug demonstrates unique textures inspired by nature. The luxe labyrinth is hand-knotted with lush wool to make a raised grid pattern of plushness, then hand sheared. The resulting subtle variations of pile height are only found in artisanally produced rugs. Offered in a sophisticated palette of mineral-rich neutrals, designed by Marie Flanigan, principal of Marie Flanigan Interiors, reflecting her signature style of timeless elegance and innovative simplicity.

Crafted by artisans committed to fair-labor practices.

FEATURES & BENEFITS: Durable construction; plush feel; eye-catching, unusual weave. Because the weave lies in a single direction and is not apt to pull, hand-knotted rugs can appear lighter from one angle than the other - an optical illusion that is part of their appeal.

WHERE TO USE: Area rugs that are perfect for "center stage" rooms like the living room, dining room, or master bedroom.

It is common for wool rugs to shed, as they are created from natural fibers that form long strands of material that are then hand-knotted to create delightfully soft and durable area rugs. Due to the sheared pile, loose fibers will eventually work their way to the surface. If your wool area rug starts shedding, this is normal. Just trim any tufts of wool that appear with a sharp pair of scissors; do not pull the fibers.
