What Are Classic Green Rugs?
Classic rugs are hand-knotted in the traditional way—from natural wool, silk or premium blends with unique patterns.
- Oriental Rugs: Handmade originals from Iran/Persia, Afghanistan, Turkey, China, India, Pakistan & the Caucasus. Green hues express everything from gentle mint to rich forest green.
- Persian Rugs: Masterpieces from Iran/Persia, especially from Nain, Tabriz, Qom, Isfahan & Kashan: renowned for emerald to olive green accents—often combined with ivory, red or blue.
- Village Rugs: Traditional rugs in rich, natural shades of green, featuring vibrant patterns and rustic charm.
- Nomadic Rugs: Expressive rugs with intense green hues and distinctive, authentic patterns—perfect for a natural and inviting home atmosphere.

Material Guide: Wool, Silk, Viscose & More – How Materials Shape Green Rugs
The material is essential for sheen, shade, and daily practicality:
- Fine Sheep’s Wool: Gives matte, natural greens—olive, pistachio, moss—and is robust, easy-care & climate regulating.
- Wool with Silk: All green shades shimmer with sophistication—perfect for emerald, jade or mint; light brings extra depth and variety.
- Wool with Viscose/Bamboo Silk: Softer lustre—great for fresh, contemporary green in colorblock or solid styles.
- Pure Natural Silk: Intensifies iridescent greens—preferred for wall tapestries or as a highlight in luxury originals.
- Animal-free Art Silk: Luminous, affordable and vegan—especially compelling in soft greens with contemporary appeal.
Expert tip: The more silk in your rug, the more the green shades shift with the light and viewpoint—perfect for lively, atmospheric rooms.
