3317 · 5'3" x 8'3" Persian Lori Area Rug

A rust band crosses the top end of this lovely rug. Small flower sprays in olive green stand in staggered rows across a slate blue field, each outlined in dark olive. Darker blue green clouds move through the field, and there is no medallion, so the rows carry the whole plan. The gorgeous light brown main border runs a chain of gray blue diamonds with small gray green diamonds beneath, between narrow gray guard stripes. A wider rust band crosses the top end. A light antique wash softened the colors without reaching the drawing, so every spray still reads clearly. The pile is worn low, with fine horizontal streaks across the field. It has a soft blue base, with the rust band at one end adding a warm note. At 5'3" by 8'3", it fits a bedroom beside the bed, a study under a desk, or a small sitting area.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
