Introducing the Soft Melody collection from Agra, India, our "Soft Melody" rug showcases a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and innovative design. Handwoven by skilled artisans in their homes, these rugs embody centuries-old techniques passed down through generations.

The quality of the Soft Melody rug starts with its luxurious composition. Made from a combination of imported New Zealand wool (50-75%) and superior local or South African wool, this rug showcases a lustrous finish that sets it apart from rugs made solely from local wools. The imported New Zealand wool is meticulously hand-carded and hand-spun into yarn, supporting the local economy and ensuring sustainability.

What makes the Soft Melody rug truly unique is its single-ply yarn. Unlike the more common two-ply yarns, each knot in this rug incorporates a single thread, resulting in a denser, heavier yarn with pronounced knots. This characteristic, along with the use of an asymmetrical Persian-type knot, creates a distinctive texture and visual appeal.

Renowned for its 6x6 quality, the Soft Melody rug reflects the intricate craftsmanship involved. Its robustness and intricate design clarity are evident in its dense construction.

Constructed with a 100% wool pile and cotton foundation, this rug boasts tightly spun cotton warps. Most of these rugs are double-wefted, ensuring durability. With a pile height of approximately 3/8 inch, the handspun yarn adds subtle color variations, enhancing each rug with a unique aesthetic achieved through artisanal dyeing techniques.

The Soft Melody rug's longevity is safeguarded by its high-quality coloration. Utilizing chromium (chrome) dyes, the rug resists fading and maintains its vibrant hues over time. These exceptional chromium dyes, primarily imported from Switzerland, are expertly applied to the wool in India, blending international resources with local craftsmanship.

Add grace and sophistication to your space with the Soft Melody rug, a testament to the rich tradition and artistry of Indian rug weaving. Experience the beauty of this contemporary design, featuring a slate background and beige border, complemented by shades of grey in a size of 8'11" x 12'1".
