Egyptian Oriental rug
This rug in dusty pink and light red combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. A knot density of approx. 200,000 knots per m² makes the painstaking workmanship visible – right down to the finely worked details. At 143 × 73 cm, it is well placed as a hallway runner. It also cuts a fine figure in the kitchen in front of the worktop. This one-of-a-kind piece brings individual character into the room and keeps its value far beyond short-lived trends.

Origin
The pattern of this Oriental rug is inspired by classic Persian rug designs. This rug was knotted in Egypt.
Material
The pile of this Egyptian Oriental rug was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: thanks to the natural lanolin content of the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is thus naturally protected against dirt. Wool also provides excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on the indoor climate and dampens sound.The weft and warp threads of this Egyptian Oriental rug are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic and therefore particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation.
Condition
You are not the first to take a liking to this Egyptian Oriental rug. It has had owners before you who valued and used it. It was knotted around 2009. It has been cleaned thoroughly and is in good, though only partly restored, condition. The fringes could do with a little repair here and there. We have not fully restored this Egyptian Oriental rug, because we feel it has a special charm just as it is. If that is what you would like, we are of course happy to restore the rug further for you. We can bring almost any rug back to near-perfect condition.
A note on the photos
Child labour? No thanks.
The rug trade against child labour: Children belong in school, not at a knotting or weaving loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour. We place particular importance on good working conditions and tolerate no child labour at our producers.
We are proud to be a member of the Care & Fair campaign against child labour.
The industry-wide campaign CARE & FAIR - the rug trade against child labour was founded in 1994. The initiative has made it its mission to fight the excesses of illegal child labour in the knotting countries and, at the same time, to improve the overall situation of rug knotters and their families in the knotting regions of India, Nepal and Pakistan.
Our goals:
- Ending illegal child labour in India and Pakistan.
- Creating better living conditions for knotters' families.
- Socially responsible production. We only accept goods that have been made under fair conditions. Working with our producers as partners, we want to make clear to them that taking on social responsibility benefits everyone.
Together with Care & Fair we currently support 10 schools, 6 adult education centres and 3 day clinics in India and Pakistan.
