Handmade in India, this rug features a Donegal design with a charcoal base and coral undertones, accented by sage, beige, tan, and brown colors. It reflects the Irish tradition of rug making, particularly the Donegal rugs from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The rug's design sensibility evokes a highly decorative 'Irish' rendition of palmette, leaf, and vine patterns rooted in Eastern carpet traditions. This Donegal design aligns with the William Morris style of Art & Crafts rugs, known for their expansive and decorative elements. The soothing and versatile color palette complements various home décor styles, making the rug perfect for adding visual glamour and sophistication to any room.

Story Behind the Art: The late 1800s witnessed the genesis of the Irish rug industry, as Morton & Company ventured into rug production in the picturesque region of Donegal, Ireland. Unfolding through the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this period marked the ascendancy of Donegal rugs as exemplars of exquisite craftsmanship. Characterized by highly ornate motifs, these rugs embodied a distinctive 'Irish' flair, weaving together influences from Oriental and Persizan rug traditions and the intricate tapestry of Celtic artistic heritage.
