Introducing the "Soft Melody" collection, a luxurious blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and innovation. This Indian rug features the illusions 2 design, a contemporary style with a light brown background and an ivory border. Made from a combination of wool on cotton, this new rug showcases quality materials and meticulous handcrafting.

Originating in and around the city of Agra, India, these rugs are primarily handwoven by artisans in their homes, utilizing techniques that have been perfected over centuries. The Soft Melody rug stands out with its unique single-ply yarn, incorporating a single thread in each knot. This results in a thicker, denser yarn with visibly pronounced knots, adding to the rug's tactile and visual appeal.

With a pile height of approximately 3/8 inch, the Soft Melody rug features a 100% wool pile and a cotton foundation. The use of tightly spun cotton warps and double-wefting contributes to the rug's durability. The handspun nature of the yarn also leads to subtle color variations, enhancing each rug's individual aesthetic.

To ensure long-lasting vibrancy, the Soft Melody rug is dyed using chromium (or chrome) dyes. These high-quality dyes resist fading and maintain their vibrant hues over time, unlike rugs using inferior synthetic dyes. The chromium dyes, primarily imported from Switzerland, are applied to the wool in India, combining international and local resources.

Measuring 11'8" x 14'5", this Soft Melody rug showcases intricate craftsmanship and design clarity with its 6x6 density. From its luxurious materials to its resilient construction, this rug exemplifies the union of tradition and innovation found in the "Soft Melody" collection.
