On The Design:

Admirers of the craft will admire this rare personal vintage rug meant to catch the eye, yet still so atypical in its color and design choices that are so complementary to each other making it a comfortable, and inviting piece. Connoisseurs may admire a salmon pink rosette with bright blue accents surrounded by a dense field of geometric-floral patterns, with spandrels and borders sporting the same abundance and detail. Keen eyes will appreciate this as an exemplary take on the style, particularly in both its attention to detail and scale for such a large-size rug—a regal and collectible work for the designer and connoisseur alike. Much appreciated is this subversive way to approach a traditional design, while anyone can appreciate its unique classic look, detail, movement and phenomenal range of colors in kind.
