This rug is absolutely PERFECT! ( and I rarely use that word} It is very substantial in it’s heft, but wonderfully soft underfoot. The wool seems to be of a very high grade and the handwoven pattern comes through with such brilliance. The blue and off white colors are vibrant and calming all at the same time. All in all, I highly recommend this rug. Even my husband, who rarely has an opinion about such things, has commented on how much he likes the rug.
