Hand-Tufted Rug Made of 100% Wool - Gardenia - 110cm x 160cm (Ebony and Ruby): Give your floor a make-over with this luxurious, 100% wool rug! It has been hand-tufted by skilled weavers, on traditional looms, using 3.5kg of wool per square metre, to create a gorgeous rug in an artistic floral design.
A hand-tufted woollen rug is created without tying knots into the foundation, but rather by pushing wool yarn through a primary backing (cotton cloth), creating a 'tuft'. Then, using a latex glue to hold the 'tufts' in place, a secondary foundation (scrim), which is then covered by a third and final cloth backing to protect your floor. The final step involves shearing the tops of the looped tufts to create the pile. The tufting method creates a highly durable and beautifully accurate handmade rug that will weather foot traffic for years to come.
