Material DetailsWool is the most widely used fiber in Turkish rug design. Not only is it plentiful in supply, it’s durable, long-lasting, and soft—so it’s super comfy to walk and relax on. This wool pile is knotted onto a unique blend of cotton and wool where the two fibers have been twisted together into a yarn to be used form a sturdy foundation. The cotton used is rigid, strong, and provides a sturdy foundation that’s designed to last a lifetime—or ten.
