Guinea Handwoven Rug
A stunning, made-to-order karakul wool and mohair blend handwoven rug made by hand by talented weaving artisans in South Africa for the home aficionado who prioritises natural fibres, texture, origin and authenticity.
By choosing a Coral and Hive rug, you are making a considered decision to buy a unique piece that will breathe life into the space it inhabits - a textile of the highest quality, handwoven on large wooden looms by talented weavers using natural fibres.
Karakul rugs are soft, sturdy and perfect for everyday living. Handspun and woven from the wool of the Karakul sheep, a common breed found in Botswana, Namibia and South Africa who are renowned for their ability to thrive and forage under extremely harsh living conditions.
These rugs have excellent weight and substance to them with a chunky, satisfying feel. Bringing warmth, depth and texture to any room - they are somewhat dense, springy and possess a very natural texture. Think raw and imperfectly perfect.
The ideal match for these natural rugs is wood flooring, concrete and natural floor coverings. The wool is bound by a very long fibre and is spun and woven to ensure a rug that will last a lifetime. A high natural coating of lanolin makes these rugs extremely durable, protects against staining, and also fire resistant.
Standard sizes available:
1.7m x 2.4m | 2m x 3m | 2.5m x 3.5m | 3m x 4m
Each of these rugs are custom made by hand on the looms. Please contact our team on sales@coastaldrift.net to discuss sizes, pricing and lead times.
