Woven from pure virgin wool using the flat-braid technique that warmed New England homes for generations, this oval area rug brings soft texture and lasting color to your floors. The Astoria Braided Oval Reversible Area Rug is available at Uptown Sebastian with free shipping. Each piece is handmade in the USA with crush-resistant knitted fiber filling that keeps the rug from flattening in high-traffic zones.
How Is This Rug Actually Built?
The rug is built by hand using a flat-braid method, weaving 100% virgin wool yarns into continuous braids that are then stitched together to form the oval shape. A crush-resistant knitted fiber filling provides cushiony support underneath, so the rug retains its shape even in entryways and dining rooms where foot traffic is constant. Space-dyeing applies multiple colors to each yarn before weaving, creating rich multicolor patterns that conceal everyday wear and give every rug a one-of-a-kind look.
What Can You Choose on This Rug?
You can choose from six space-dyed colorways and seven sizes to fit the room you're furnishing.
- Colors: Greengrass, Walnut, Red Velvet, Wheat Field, Black Rock, Blue Dragon
- Sizes: 2' x 3', 3' x 5', 4' x 6', 5' x 8', 7' x 9', 8' x 11', 10' x 13'
How Soon Will It Arrive?
This rug ships in 48-72 hours. Because each piece is handmade, size variations up to ± 3% and slight dye-lot differences are expected -- tolerable variations that come with traditional craft. The rug carries the durability of virgin wool, which naturally resists stains and holds its appearance year after year.
Which Size Works for Your Space?
The 5' x 8' size fits under dining tables seating four to six, with enough border to keep chair legs on the rug when pulled out. The 7' x 9' and 8' x 11' options anchor living rooms with sectional seating, while the 2' x 3' and 3' x 5' formats layer over hardwood in entryways or beside beds. Oval shapes soften the geometry of rectangular rooms and work well in open floor plans where you want the rug to define a zone without blocking flow.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Where is this rug made?
- It's handmade in the USA using traditional flat-braid construction with pure virgin wool yarns.
- Can I flip the rug to extend its wear life?
- Yes, the rug is fully reversible -- you can flip it to distribute wear evenly and refresh the look without replacing the piece.
- Is this rug safe for outdoor use?
- No, it's rated for indoor use only. Wool naturally resists stains and retains color indoors but is not treated for outdoor exposure.
- How do I clean a braided wool rug?
- Spot-clean spills with mild detergent and water, and schedule professional cleaning annually to maintain the fibers.
- Will the colors match the photo exactly?
- Space-dyeing applies color randomly, so each rug has a unique look and no two are exactly alike. Slight dye-lot variation between rugs is expected with handmade production.
- Which size should I choose for a dining room?
- Allow at least 24 inches of rug extending beyond the table edges when chairs are pulled out -- the 5' x 8' works for smaller tables, while 7' x 9' or larger fits six-seat and eight-seat arrangements.
