Simple and classical, our Tait rug in Watercress offers a rich, calming green that settles effortlessly into a myriad of interior styles. Its forest-toned saturation brings a visual stillness to any space, grounding your home with quiet confidence.
Complementing the classic tip-sheared finish, the Tait Watercress is now also available in our new Embossed Design. Each piece is meticulously hand-carved, revealing a sculptural pattern that deepens both texture and form. As light moves across the raised detailing, subtle shifts in tone appear, enhancing the depth of the Watercress palette and inviting a gentle sense of movement. It is a study in craft and materiality, a thoughtful piece designed to endure.
Hand-loomed with a blend of New Zealand wool and cotton for softness and durability, the Tait Watercress rug features a tip-sheared construction that creates a lightly textured, time-worn appearance suited to any considered interior.
Each piece is carefully handmade and attracts a one-of-a-kind finish. The size and colour may present a 3-5% industry standard variance.

See a Sample in Your Own Home
It’s difficult to judge a rug from a screen. Seeing a sample in your own space makes all the difference.
We hold samples of most of our rugs and can send a square directly to you, so you can check colour and texture alongside your flooring, paint and furniture.
If you’d like guidance, you’re also welcome to visit our Auckland studio. We can help you narrow down options, discuss sizing and placement, and view pieces not listed online — all in a relaxed, one-on-one appointment. We’re also happy to check if a full-sized rug is on display and advise where it can be viewed.
