On the Design:

This particular rug—entitled “Shakaviz”— enjoys floral patterns in silver gray tones, with accents in black, white, and and ice blue. The all over pattern is a borderless, almost abstract array of flowers and foliage growing from below with vines hanging above them, in which darker vertical lines running all over lend a sense of connectivity between both ends of the rug. Admirers of the craft and keen eyes will appreciate the unique sense of movement, intrigue, dimensionality, and intricate detail at work in this piece—akin to a masterpiece of modern art as a gorgeous handmade rug of unprecedented craftsmanship, yet still it offers such a versatile, comfortable look in its choice of cool, forgiving colors and muted patterns.
