Contemporary Hand-Knotted Solid Light Gray Wool & Silk Runner “Sagewash” N11788 7'2" × 21'2" $18,000

A softly weathered field of taupe and sage gives Sagewash its quietly graphic character, with the surface reading like a painterly wash rather than a fixed repeat. The composition stays open and borderless, allowing the muted gray-green tonal shifts to create pattern through texture, movement, and light.

Hand-knotted in wool and silk, the rug balances a grounded matte hand with a delicate sheen that catches across the low, dense pile. Flecks of beige, olive, and soft gray deepen the surface, while the silk lends a faint luster that enhances the rug’s subtly distressed, antique-inspired finish.

Designed as an understated foundation for modern and organic modern interiors, it brings depth and visual softness without competing with furnishings. Sagewash is named for its gently washed sage palette and elegant, timeworn character, making it especially well suited to rooms defined by sculptural seating, natural woods, and stone.

DLB offers an expansive selection of modern rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making exceptional carpet art accessible to designers and collectors alike.
