The Paper Straw Area Rug from Harlequin marches diagonal stripes across the floor with precision and consistent spacing. Handtufted from pure new wool in India, each stripe maintains an identical width while running parallel to its neighbors throughout the entire field. This unwavering regularity creates optical movement that can make rooms appear longer or wider depending on stripe direction. Position this rug in narrow halls to visually widen the space, or use it perpendicular to long rooms to create the illusion of broader proportions.
