On the Design:

A cream white field underscores an elaborate, vibrant collection of embroidered tribal pictorials and floral patterns in polychromatic hues—a fabulous range of motifs including butterflies, amulets, birds, scenes of life and other symbols of life and whimsy. Admirers of the craft will further appreciate the unique revival of this technique in an all-wool construction and intricate new texture—a more durable way to recreate these old-world textile designs for use on the floor while still capturing their fabulous, elegant look in the most honorable fashion. Each piece is so unique and deeply personal in its particular details and whimsical beauties that distinguish the style in our craft—as much vibrant works of folk art as they are warm and welcoming choices for the floor and wall-hanging projects alike in their craft and sensibility.

Tribal pictorial tapestries such as those that inspired this are rich, collectible glimpses into the lives of their weavers, and the many themes of home and nomadic life speak of this rug’s richness—a truly special piece evoking the beauty of old-world charm and a cultured air alike. See less
