Product details
Hand-knotted wool rugs bring heirloom durability and natural stain resistance to dining rooms, living rooms, and master bedrooms that see daily use. The Aida Floral brown large area rug--available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping--features traditional Persian floral motifs hand-tied from 100-percent hand-spun New Zealand wool across four generous sizes, from 6' x 9' to 10' x 14'. A hand-knotted area rug is woven by skilled artisans who tie individual yarn strands to vertical warp threads on a loom, creating dense pile that resists crushing and outlasts machine-woven alternatives by decades, making pieces like the Aida Floral staples in our LOOMLAN Rugs collection.

Why Choose Hand-Knotted Wool from Sideboards and Things?
Hand-spun New Zealand wool fibers naturally repel light stains and resist matting under furniture weight, while artisan-tied knots ensure structural integrity in high-traffic zones like entryways and beneath dining tables. The 9' x 12' size fits standard living rooms with front legs of all seating on the rug, while the 10' x 14' anchors open-concept spaces or formal dining areas seating eight to ten--center the largest size under dining tables to extend twenty-four inches beyond all chair edges when pulled out. Pair this brown floral rug with furniture in leather or linen to balance ornate Persian patterns with clean upholstery lines, and layer with neutral area rugs in adjacent rooms to create flow without pattern overload.
Frequently Asked Questions
