This rug is gorgeous!
I love the rich colors and the design. The blues are much more striking than in the photo. It appears to be well constructed and I enjoy thinking of the person who so carefully made this rug. This is a carpet that probably would not withstand heavy traffic such as in an entry hall, but it is perfect for our guest bedroom.
Beautiful, delightfu!, and meaningful!
I ordered these in addition to the soapstone carved box. I have a thing for elephants. They are beautifully carved and hold a carving within a carving. There is another smaller elephant just visible within. For me, it symbolically represents each of our species carry the future within, along with the wisdom and the hope to endure and survive. Elephant figurines with their trunks curved down represent wisdom and the abiity to overcome obstacles. I would like to think they speak to the even deeper wisdom carried within.....Ancestral and what is even deeper within us that is available to us to draw upon.
