Meet Blue Steel, a modern abstract that captures the horizon in layered steel blues, mineral greys, and misted sky tones. Hand-knotted in a luxurious wool–silk blend, the surface shows a gentle sheen that shifts with the light, while the medium-thick pile delivers plush comfort and sound-softening calm — a refined anchor for great rooms, primary suites, and open plans.
The composition reads like weathered stone and water in motion: tonal striations, quiet texture, and painterly flecks that style effortlessly with wood, plaster, stone, and metal. At a versatile 9′ × 12′, Blue Steel unifies a full seating suite with clean sightlines and gallery-level poise.

About this Weave
This rug is finest hand-knotted in a wool–silk blend.
