Wool Abstract Indoor Rug

Based on an original Asmara painting inspired by a 17th-century Persian wool brocade, Como combines thousands of subtle shades of fresh green and gold tonally, giving this ancient pattern a surprisingly contemporary feel. Similar patterns of mythical creatures enclosed in ovals are found in wool brocades from Ming Dynasty China to Renaissance Italy and Spain. This hand-made cut and loop pile rug was made by combining a loop weave invented by Asmara with the ancient French Savonnerie pile weave. Knotted with a complex yarn made up of several yarns of different shades, this rug has a unique texture and shading variations reminiscent of rare antique rugs. Has passed independent durability tests by the Independent Textile Service of Dalton, Georgia, USA. Green manufacturing methods make this rug safe for children and pets.
