You can buy this handmade carpet before it arrives in our Tewkesbury showroom. As the rug has not yet been received into our stock at Tewkesbury, it has yet to be properly photographed; the images are not as good as our normal images. However, they are actual photographs of the finished rug. Once the rug has been transferred from our warehouse, we will rephotograph it.

This rug uses beautiful, restful cream and blue colours, and the design's simplicity is easy on the eye. It is an interesting piece depicting different trees, and a handful of stylised animals and birds have been woven in to give the rug additional character.

The colours of the Loribaft rugs and carpets are similar to those used in our Samarkand collections and possibly more vibrant. The main distinction is that the patterns are playful, using a defined colour palette and simple design, with stylised animals, plants, trees or characters with block colour often mimicking an ombre effect. Some Loribaft pieces do not have fringes, so they are finished with a plain end or binding and secured to prevent fraying. Like the Samarkand carpets, other rugs are produced with an unusual bobbin wind on the warps.
