Nila Hand-Knotted Area Rug

New Zealand wool is prized for its long, resilient fibers, which provide a soft, plush feel while remaining exceptionally durable. It is naturally comfortable for high-traffic areas and maintains its texture well over time.

Hand-knotting is the most labor-intensive and durable way to create a rug. Each knot is tied individually by an artisan, resulting in a dense, heirloom-quality piece that is far more resistant to wear and shedding than machine-made alternatives.

Regular vacuuming without the beater bar is recommended to keep the rug clean and prevent dust buildup. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth; avoid rubbing, which can damage the wool fibers.

Because this rug is handcrafted using natural materials, slight variations in color and pattern are expected and celebrate the artisan process. The Aegean, Olive, and Sage tones are designed to be subtle and grounding, though they may appear slightly different depending on your room's natural lighting.

Yes, the high-quality New Zealand wool is naturally stain-resistant and durable enough for busy households. However, because it is a hand-knotted piece, we recommend using a rug pad to prevent slipping and to provide an extra layer of protection for the fibers.
