Product details
The Bunn Abstract Large Area Rug pairs hand-knotted New Zealand wool with hand-carved texture, offering a neutral multi-tone palette that anchors modern living rooms without overwhelming them. An area rug is a foundation textile that defines a room's footprint, provides comfort underfoot, and ties furniture groupings together, and this hand-knotted piece delivers both durability and subtle design across four practical sizes. The Bunn Abstract rug is available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping. Its blend of 80% hand-spun New Zealand wool and 20% viscose creates a medium pile that withstands daily traffic while reflecting light across the abstract pattern of ivory, beige, dark grey, taupe, and white.

Why Choose Hand-Knotted Wool Rugs from Sideboards and Things?
Hand-knotted construction means each yarn strand is individually tied to the foundation, producing a dense pile that outlasts machine-woven alternatives and resists flattening in high-traffic paths. The medium pile height balances comfort and maintenance, while the viscose accents add a subtle sheen that plays with light throughout the day. This rug works seamlessly under dining tables and living room groupings, defining zones in open-concept homes or layering over hardwood in smaller conversation areas. The neutral abstract palette complements the reclaimed wood and metal finishes found in industrial and farmhouse interiors, providing visual interest without competing for attention.
How to Size Your Area Rug
A 9' x 12' rug fits most living rooms, allowing front furniture legs to rest on the perimeter while leaving 24 to 36 inches of floor exposed on all sides in a 14' x 18' room. The 10' x 14' option suits open-concept spaces where all seating floats fully on the rug, creating a unified anchor. The 8' x 10' size works under dining tables for six to eight chairs with room to pull out comfortably, and the 6' x 9' defines reading nooks, bedroom seating areas, or entryway zones. Center the rug and measure from furniture edges to ensure balanced clearance around the perimeter.
