What survives from the original is the structure — field, medallion logic, banded border — and what changes is the temperature. Green at this softness sits quietly beside gray and pale wood, and it stops a classical rug from making a room look older than it is. Against a dark floor the pattern reads more clearly than the color does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface you walk on is wool, all of it. In the foundation there is cotton and a trace of recycled synthetic yarn, put there for strength, and the house says so rather than describing the rug as all-natural.

The banding that results across the field is a consequence of the dyeing rather than a fault in it, and the house treats it as the reason to buy the rug rather than something to apologize for. The knot is the double one, tied around a pair of warps, which is the conservative choice for a floor meant to be walked on for fifty years.

The vintage drawing takes the intensity out of the ground, so the color arrives already settled rather than arriving new and needing a decade to calm down. Against cream walls it reads green; against gray it goes decisively blue, and the same rug will look like two colors depending on which wall it is nearest.
