The Tonal Artichoke: A Premium Hand-Woven Geometric Kelim
The Tonal Artichoke is a hand-woven geometric kelim from Mae Artisan Rugs. Part of our
Kelim Collection, this flat-weave rug is woven in India from 80% wool and 20% cotton. The tonal grey artichoke motif creates a subtle, monochrome botanical pattern with depth and texture.
Artisanal Quality and Materials
Crafted with 80% wool and 20% cotton, the Tonal Artichoke is built for everyday life. The wool provides natural warmth and durability, while the cotton core keeps the flat-weave structure stable and prevents the botanical pattern from warping over time. Our yarns are batch-dyed by hand, which means each rug develops subtle, organic colour variations known as abrash. No two Tonal Artichoke kelims are identical.
Styling Your Tonal Artichoke Kelim
The monochrome grey palette of the Tonal Artichoke makes it a sophisticated choice for modern, minimalist, and contemporary interiors. The tonal use of a single colour creates visual interest through texture and pattern rather than contrast. It works particularly well in living rooms, bedrooms, and offices where a refined, understated rug is needed.
Care and Longevity
Vacuum regularly on a low-suction setting without a beater bar. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Since this is a handmade item using natural fibres, professional cleaning is recommended every 12 to 18 months. Rotating the rug every six months ensures even wear. Learn more about
