About: I've named this rug Dean, after James Dean - a timeless and iconic figure respectively. This rug really is stoic in its feel - an antique rug hailing from the Northwest Mountains of the greatest rug weaving country ever known. Uncommon size for the American market as this piece was woven solely for the European market - giving it's narrow and long size. This piece has everything from beauty, to uniqueness, to age, and soul. The lack of corner spandrels gives this piece an openness just having the medallion surrounded by a jungle of colors highlighting the floral and vine motifs. The medallion itself could be a rug - it has such intrigue and qualities of true art. The abrash (natural variation of colors) in the rug giving it its two-toned look isn't even straight - which is SO SO wonderful. This is human, this is art - the imperfection even has imperfection! The camel border is rare and the geometric elements are asymmetrical in shape - giving the rug an underlying charm accompanying it's bold and geometric demeanor. This rug has some age-related wear with some threadbare areas adding a nice and genuine look as a show-stopping character piece!

This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one available. Because of the nature and age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities and age-related wear are likely to exist and are not considered defects. See less
