On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will appreciate Tuareg mats as distinct tribal works with a rich history and unique, masterful craft. This particular piece enjoys one of the best sizes one can find these in—an area rug well suited to a wider range of interiors today. The range of colors, too, is a departure from many others in the style, and they’ve aged beautifully in kind. It’s a collectible piece of primitivist folk art and nomadic culture, as well as a comfortable, durable floor covering with so many special design applications today. See less
