{"product_id":"gray-handhooked-williammorris-lbr19367","title":"Slate \u0026 Marigold Multi Size Traditional William Morris Hungry Birds High Twist Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug","description":"There’s a refined, understated drama to this luxury designer rug—one that unfolds slowly, rewarding attention over time. Set against a rich slate-grey ground, the field is animated with mirrored birds, expansive botanical scrollwork, and accents of marigold gold woven through leaves, petals, and perched forms. The layout is fully symmetrical, a hallmark of classic William Morris style rugs: birds face inward across a central arrangement of open sunflower and tulip motifs, while a secondary register below introduces another pair of birds bending toward suspended fruit clusters. Every inch of the surface is thoughtfully filled, yet the composition never feels overwhelming—an expert execution of the “horror vacui” principle that defines high-end traditional rug design.\n\nThe border structure is equally considered, featuring multiple bands that build visual depth: a wide slate botanical scroll outer band, a warm gold vine guard, and a fine wave motif framing the entire composition. Subtle ivory and cream highlights lift the darker tones, enhancing contrast and visibility across the field.\n\nConstructed using LoomBloom’s advanced loop-and-cut pile technique, this high-quality hand-hooked wool rug offers dimensional texture—plush cut pile contrasts with low loop areas to create shifting depth across the grey ground. The high-twist wool ensures crisp definition in every leaf and bird motif while significantly reducing shedding compared to standard hand-hooked rugs, making it ideal for living rooms, dining spaces, and high-traffic interiors in U.S. homes.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: Multi Size Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Hooked Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Gray, Beige, Taupe, Gold, Cream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.75 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: LBR19367A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eAbout the Collection\nSome patterns were never meant to remain confined to fabric. William Morris devoted his work to capturing nature in its most intricate and expressive form—intertwining branches, blooming florals, and birds in quiet motion. At LoomBloom, we reimagined that legacy with a simple idea: what if these timeless designs could be experienced not just visually, but physically—woven into the spaces we live in?\n\nThis collection is the result.\n\nEach piece draws directly from Morris’s iconic botanical language—layered foliage, mirrored bird compositions, and endlessly flowing vines—translated into premium hand-hooked wool rugs. Using our signature loop-and-cut pile construction, these designs move beyond flat pattern into dimensional form. Where Morris worked in ink and dye, our artisans work in texture and elevation—allowing petals, leaves, and stems to rise and recede across the surface. The result is a rug with true visual depth, one that subtly transforms as natural and ambient light shifts throughout the day.\n\nThe collection features seven distinct colorways, ranging from deep, moody palettes with near-black grounds layered in forest greens and coral accents, to light, airy compositions with antique ivory fields, soft blue birds, and warm terracotta florals. Whether a space calls for bold visual impact or quiet refinement, this collection offers a design to match.\n\nInnovative Loop \u0026amp; Cut Pile Technique\nUnlike standard machine-tufted rugs where pile remains uniform and flat, LoomBloom’s hand-hooked construction introduces intentional variation across every design element. The loop-and-cut technique allows different parts of the pattern to carry distinct textures—looped areas provide a subtle sheen and structure, while cut pile delivers softness and definition. Stems, florals, and background fields are carefully differentiated, creating a layered surface that reflects light and shadow dynamically.\n\nThe result is a rug that feels closer to a living composition than a static design—echoing the depth, richness, and movement of a true Morris original, reinterpreted for modern interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Loombloom","offers":[{"title":"8x10","offer_id":54861236994339,"sku":"LBR19367A","price":799.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9x12","offer_id":54861237027107,"sku":"LBR19367B","price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0847\/1635\/5875\/files\/A19367_20lbr.jpg?v=1774345813","url":"https:\/\/loombloomrugs.com\/products\/gray-handhooked-williammorris-lbr19367","provider":"loomBloom Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
