Anatito Anati11 Sage Wool Handmade Carpet 9'9" x 12'6"

Sage green entered the tribal weaving palette through the iron-mordant indigo bath, where a few hours of oxidation pulled the indigo toward grey and a pinch of weld lifted it back toward leaf. The colour belonged to the Caucasian Kazak in particular, where it framed medallion work in a way the saturated red and indigo of period Anatolian could not. The Anati11 sage reading of that tradition runs at the 9'9" x 12'6" (297 x 381 cm) scale of a long modern living room.

This rug was hand-tufted in India over roughly eight weeks by two tufters and a finisher. Wool was pushed through a stretched cotton canvas one row at a time with a tufting gun, the sage field laid first and the medallion built into the centre. The back was sealed with natural latex and a cotton scrim. The medallion was carved with long shears a millimetre below the field, so the silhouette holds under raking light. The rug was washed twice after the carving and sun-dried flat.

The composition

A muted sage ground carries a pale medallion in ivory, rose, ochre, and walnut, framed by an ornamental vine and dot border. The sage shifts unevenly across the field because the dye bath was small-batch. The medallion reads as a quiet architectural centre rather than as a busy emblem. The border is restrained enough to let the green carry the room. Sage is the colour of a leaf in shadow, and the rug behaves the same way against natural light.

The piece in a room

9'9" x 12'6" (297 x 381 cm) suits a primary living room, a long dining floor, or a master suite. The sage palette pairs with walnut, raw oak, brass, dark linen, and the warm whites of contemporary plaster. The rug works under botanical art, abstract canvas, and architectural photography. The green grounds rooms with strong wall colour and brings life to the cool minimalism of off-white interiors.

Care

Vacuum weekly with the beater bar disengaged so the wool is not pulled out of the canvas. Every hand-tufted rug sheds for the first six to eight weeks of use. Blot spills with a clean cotton cloth and never rub. A professional dry clean every three years lifts settled dust and keeps the sage from going flat. The rug holds its hand for fifteen years and beyond.
