Modern Hand-Knotted Windowpane Light Gray Wool Oversized Rug “Shoji” N13069 12'2" × 18'1" $26,000

A cool-white windowpane grid gives this contemporary wool rug its quiet architectural rhythm. Set on a light gray field, the geometric pattern reads as layered squares and crossbars rather than a hard-edged motif, creating a restrained, highly polished surface with a calm, luminous presence.

Hand-knotted in wool with a high-low construction, the rug gains subtle relief as the raised lines catch the light and the flatter background softens into a smooth, dense field. The tonal palette stays within shades of gray and cool white, allowing texture to do the visual work while preserving the clarity designers look for in a modern rug.

Named Shoji for the elegant Japanese paper screen, the design echoes that reference through its serene windowpane composition and measured architectural precision. It suits interiors that call for understated pattern, a refined geometric anchor, and the tactile depth of a wool hand-knotted rug.

Part of the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, this rug reflects the gallery’s dedication to pairing traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design vision.
