Product details
Hand-knotted wool construction delivers years of resilience in dining rooms, living areas, and bedrooms where foot traffic demands more than standard-grade textiles can provide. The Broc Medallion gray area rug--a Persian-inspired design woven from 100% wool--available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping. An area rug is a textile floor covering designed to define and anchor spaces, and hand-knotted wool examples like this one combine durability with warmth underfoot, building character as they age instead of wearing thin.

Why Choose Hand-Knotted Wool from Sideboards and Things?
Hand-knotted construction ties individual wool fibers around warp threads on vertical looms, creating a dense, resilient pile that resists crushing in high-traffic rooms where printed or tufted rugs flatten within seasons. The gray ground anchors neutral interiors while ivory and blue accents coordinate with linen upholstery and reclaimed wood pieces across transitional and contemporary spaces. Wool fibers naturally repel everyday stains and maintain structure through decades of use, improving with age rather than degrading.
How Do I Size a Persian Rug for My Room?
The 6' x 9' size fits beneath dining tables seating four to six, while the 8' x 10' accommodates living rooms with sectional seating where front furniture legs rest on the rug and rear legs remain on flooring. Choose the 9' x 12' for master bedrooms or open-concept areas, or select the 10' x 14' for great rooms where all sofa and chair legs rest fully on the pile, defining conversation zones with 18--24 inches of clearance around perimeters.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a sideboard, a credenza and a buffet?
- A sideboard is a long, low cabinet for dining room storage; a credenza is similar but often features sliding doors and shorter legs, while a buffet typically includes open shelving or glass-front cabinets above closed storage--all three anchor spaces and coordinate with traditional area rugs that define the room's footprint.
- Does the rug arrive assembled?
- Yes--the rug ships complete and ready to unroll; no assembly is required.
- How long does delivery take?
- Lead time for this rug is 48-72 hours, and free curbside delivery to the continental USA is included.
- How do I care for a wool rug?
- Vacuum weekly using a suction-only setting without a beater bar to lift surface dust, rotate the rug every six months to even wear, and schedule professional cleaning annually to preserve hand-knotted fibers--never machine wash or tumble dry wool.
- Is this rug suitable for homes with pets and children?
- Yes--wool naturally resists stains and maintains its pile structure under the demands of family life, making it a durable choice for busy households with proper maintenance.
- Can I use this rug outdoors or in a kitchen?
- No--this rug is rated for indoor use only in climate-controlled spaces; for outdoor areas or high-moisture zones, explore weather-resistant alternatives in our outdoor-rated rug collections.
