Modern Hand-Knotted Solid Light Gray Handmade Wool Rug “Lumera” N12492 16'6" × 24'0" $70,000

A study in restraint, Lumera is a hand-knotted wool rug whose soft light-gray field reads as a luminous, near-solid plane. Its design is defined less by pattern than by atmosphere, creating a quiet modern rug with the clarity and balance prized in contemporary interiors.

The surface reveals delicate tonal striation and faint abrash-like movement, allowing the ivory-leaning gray palette to feel layered rather than flat. With no border, medallion, or ornamental motif to interrupt the composition, the rug settles into a refined open-field look that highlights the artistry of its knotted construction and the natural character of wool.

Its name, Lumera, evokes the gentle play of light and shadow across the creamy surface, a fitting reference for a design that feels soft, restrained, and subtly radiant. In an oversized format, this solid contemporary rug offers a calm foundation for minimalist, modern, and transitional rooms, bringing texture, warmth, and visual ease without competing with the architecture around it.

Part of the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, this rug reflects a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, timeless design, and refined modern living. DLB offers an extensive selection of contemporary, vintage, and antique rugs suited to a wide range of interiors and design sensibilities.

A bespoke interpretation of this design is available upon request.
