Thalia Slate 7'9 x 9'9 Rug

The slate tones in this rug offer a sophisticated neutral base that adapts to various styles. In a room with bold-colored furniture, the gray tones provide a calming balance. In more traditional or transitional spaces, the space-dyed architectural lines add a layer of modern dimension. Because the rug features varying gray tones rather than a flat, solid color, it coordinates effortlessly with both cool and warm wood finishes.

This rug's dimensions are exceptionally versatile for anchoring major living areas. In a standard living room, this size is ideal for positioning under the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs to create a cohesive seating zone. For bedrooms, it provides a balanced, luxurious border when placed under the lower two-thirds of a queen-sized bed or centered beneath a king-sized frame, ensuring a soft landing for your feet on both sides.

This rug is well-suited for active households. The dense, hand-loomed construction is inherently more durable than machine-made alternatives, and the geometric pattern—broken up by space-dyed lines—is masterful at disguising minor wear and everyday foot traffic. The tight loop of the accent yarn also makes the surface less prone to snagging from pet claws compared to high-pile or shaggy textures.

This rug is hand-loomed from a premium blend of wool, viscose, and cotton, offering a level of durability and texture that synthetic fibers struggle to replicate. Wool is a high-performance natural fiber known for its resiliency, meaning the 0.5-inch pile will bounce back after being compressed by furniture. The addition of viscose provides a subtle, silk-like sheen and enhances the architectural space-dyed lines. Furthermore, this rug is GoodWeave-certified, which establishes our commitment to ethical production and the support of weaver communities.

This rug is an excellent selection for urban apartment living where space and sound management are priorities. The 0.5-inch height provides substantial underfoot cushioning and acts as a natural sound-dampener, helping to reduce noise transfer between floors. Additionally, the "slate" color palette and architectural geometric design provide a sophisticated focal point that complements modern, minimalist, or contemporary city decor without overwhelming the room.

Based on our expertise with natural fibers, we recommend vacuuming this wool-blend rug regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar turned off to prevent fraying the hand-loomed loops. For spills, our care guide recommends blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth; wool’s natural lanolin provides a light protective barrier that keeps liquids on the surface longer. For deeper maintenance, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the natural dyes and fibers.
