Contemporary Hand-Knotted Solid Stripes Slate Gray Handmade Wool Carpet “Plumbago” N11842 6'7" × 6'7" $2,800

Plumbago pairs a slate-gray ground with fine, graphite-like striations that give this square modern rug a quietly animated surface. Rather than relying on a central motif or border, the design is built from tonal movement, creating a disciplined field that feels both tailored and relaxed.

Subtle notes of brown and pewter soften the cool palette, while the hand-knotted wool construction adds a low, dense hand with a lightly weathered finish. The result is a solid-stripe rug that reads as textural, not decorative, and brings depth to clean-lined interiors without competing with furnishings.

The name Plumbago reflects its mineral character: lead-gray color and pencil-thin vertical striations that suggest natural stone and artisanal dye variation. Elegant in minimalist, modern, or layered contemporary rooms, it works well as a grounding carpet under sculptural seating, wood furnishings, or understated architecture.

A distinctive addition to Doris Leslie Blau's grand collection, this modern rug embodies the gallery's commitment to originality and artisanal excellence. Established in 1965, Doris Leslie Blau has spent six decades connecting discerning clients with extraordinary rugs, from accessible contemporary designs to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
