The Piper Modern Plain Border Rug in Cream and Black offers timeless elegance with its clean and minimalist design. Featuring a monochrome textured cream loop pile centre framed by bold smooth cut pile black borders, this hand-woven wool rug brings sophistication to both contemporary and traditional interiors.

We recommend opting for the larger sizes in the Piper rugs where space allows, as they create a more impactful look and showcase the design better.

Please refer to the additional images we've taken to help illustrate the texture of the prominent central cream loop pile detail. The loop pile will feature irregularities, such as uneven loops, stray fibres, or slight inconsistencies in height and texture. These are typical of handcrafted pieces and reflect the traditional techniques used. Please note that all wool rugs shed fibres. Due to the high contrast between the black and white areas of this rug, the shedding will be more noticeable where they meet, which some customers may find frustrating. As the rug is hand-tufted, the border design may feature slight variations and imperfections, with lines that are not perfectly straight. Each piece is unique and will differ in this regard. This rug features a textured loop pile, which offers a more tactile, structured feel underfoot. If you've previously owned smooth cut pile wool rugs, the texture and finish may feel noticeably different. This is a natural feature of the loop construction, but may not suit all preferences.

This wool rug features a sophisticated design with a textured cream centre and contrasting black borders. The central cream section is made from a textured loop pile, giving it a unique, tactile feel. Surrounding this, the black borders are crafted from a smoother cut pile, offering a visual and tactile contrast. This blend of textures provides depth to the rug's design, with the looped pile creating subtle texture and the cut pile adding smooth sleekness. The minimalist colour scheme of cream and black allows it to seamlessly complement a variety of home decor styles. Its understated yet striking appearance makes it a versatile choice for living rooms, dining areas, or bedrooms, complementing a wide range of colour schemes and decor styles. The durable wool construction ensures longevity while providing a soft, luxurious feel underfoot. This rug is perfect for those seeking a classic statement piece with enduring style and superior craftsmanship. 

Our Piper rug showcases a sleek, modern border design, featuring a bold outer edge paired with two slimmer inner borders in a striking contrast of black and cream. Inspired by contemporary hotel interiors, this minimalist style adds a sophisticated touch to any modern home.

Hand-tufted from 100% wool, the Piper rug offers lasting durability while remaining soft and comfortable underfoot – a perfect finishing touch for bedrooms, living rooms, or other stylish spaces.

Please measure your space if youre considering an 80x150cm size rug. It is a small rug that is smaller than many customers anticipate

Our Handmade Wool Rug Disclaimer

Our handmade wool rugs are individually crafted, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. Each rug features natural imperfections known as Abrash, which may include variations in colour, pattern, size, stitching, yarn thickness, and texture. These are not faults but unique characteristics that reflect the artisanal nature of each rug.

Common features may include:

• Loose threads or stray fibres (which can be trimmed with scissors – avoid pulling, as this may damage the weave)

• Mixed yarn tones or subtle colour shifts

• Natural fibre shedding, which is typical and not a defect

Shedding in Wool Rugs
Shedding is a normal and expected feature of all wool rugs. It is not a manufacturing fault and does not impact the rug’s longevity. While some shedding reduces over time, others may continue to shed for the life of the rug without affecting performance.

Expectations & Alternatives
If you prefer a rug with uniformity and precision, we recommend exploring machine-made options crafted from synthetic fibres. Handmade rugs are imperfect, and even replacement rugs will feature their own unique characteristics.

Before purchasing, we encourage you to review our full Handmade & Wool Rug Disclaimers in the Help Centre to ensure you’re fully informed.
