Evocando el océano con ricos tonos de azul, Mario Chávez combina los tonos profundos del Pacífico con el azul del Caribe mexicano. Esta deslumbrante alfombra tejida a mano evoca el mar con motivos de conchas inspirados en el arte prehispánico. Las cruces concéntricas completan una reliquia moderna. El artesano pone nombre al diseño. Caracol en español.

Debido a que cada pieza está tejida individualmente, las medidas pueden variar +/- 1 pulgada (3 cm).

“Bright and Cheery! Perfect!”

Exactly what I was looking for...a bright cheery rug to use beneath the barstools at my new kitchen island. The colors are perfect, exactly as pictured, and the craftsmanship is very nice. The wool is thick so I expect this rug will wear well. Couldnt be happier!
