Aelric is a mid-century abstract hand-tufted rug, its ivory field divided by a fine grid and scattered with organic, irregularly shaped colour blocks in navy, mustard, teal, and maroon.Product Details Construction: Hand Tufted Material: Wool Colour: Gray & Ivory Pattern: Abstract colourblock with grid Style: Modern, Mid-Century Made in: Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, India Aelric pairs a quiet, structured grid with a scatter of freeform shapes — half-circles, curved wedges, and irregular blobs — each one a different colour, breaking across the grid lines rather than sitting neatly inside them. This tension between order and looseness is a hallmark of mid-century abstract design, and it gives Aelric a collected, gallery-like feel rather than a busy all-over pattern. Hand tufted with a dense, even pile, Aelric works well as a considered accent in a room with clean, simple furniture.Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is a hand-tufted rug, and how is it made?Wool is punched through a stretched canvas backing by hand using a tufting gun, following a pre-drawn design. A layer of latex is applied underneath to lock the fibres in place, then a fabric backing is added for stability.Why do the shapes look randomly placed?The freeform colour blocks are deliberately scattered across the grid rather than aligned to it, a device common in mid-century abstract art to create visual tension.Is shedding normal on a new hand-tufted rug?Yes — some loose fibre shedding in the first few months is normal for wool pile and settles down with regular vacuuming.How do I clean and maintain it?Vacuum on suction only, without a rotating brush or beater bar. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth rather than rubbing, avoid harsh chemicals, and bring in a professional cleaner periodically.What is the pile material?Wool.Which room suits this rug best?Living rooms and studies with clean, simple furniture — the abstract pattern works best as a focal point rather than a busy backdrop.
