On The Design:

Admirers of the craft will note the outstanding length, like few oversized runners of its period to enjoy such a dense, classic pattern and phenomenal colors—an impressive range of hues in its polychromatic concept, underscored by especially present navy blues and light greens in the field and border alike. To wit it’s impressive to see the execution of this concept in a runner rug with this almost wavy, impressionistic element, where keen eyes can see the personal level of craftsmanship in the variety throughout the medallions and more small-scale florals and geometric patterns alike—an exceptional rug of personal craft with vast applications in its neutral, comfortable presence.
