Rug & Kilim’s Distressed Abstract Rug in Gold

This contemporary 8×10 abstract rug is a bold new addition to the Homage Collection by Rug & Kilim. Hand-knotted in wool and cotton, this piece is a collaboration with Lead Designer Nikita Nagpal. 

Further On the Design:

This design draws inspiration from brushstroke patterns in a layered style that evokes a look of depth and dimensionality. Keen eyes will admire gold, gray, ice-blue and ochre colors in a smart, yet playful colorway with vast applications. The departure from other abstract pieces emphasizing more clean, sometimes monotonous looks for something more exploratory and shabby-chic marries the best of possibility and simplicity, modern while livable (as the latter was a key intention behind the Homage Collection since it was introduced).

That shabby-chic element is our contemporary take on distressed texture in the inherently unique Rustic Modern concept that drives this collection. This is an approachable, easy-to-maintain wash that complements a graphic art rug with a livable look.
