River by Menelaos Vakhou

Cyprus

Cyprus

The design of the carpet represents a watercourse, a river with simple and modern lines, which aims to create a sense of illusion of movement and continuity.
Ο σχεδιασμός του χαλιού αντιπροσωπεύει ένα υδάτινο ρεύμα, ένα ποτάμι με απλές και μοντέρνες γραμμές, που στόχο έχει να δημιουργεί το αίσθημα ψευδαίσθησης της κίνησης και της συνέχειας.

Excellent Service and Products
I wanted to reserve a carpet as I was abroad when I made my choice and there was only 1 left. I was able to telephone and speak to a very helpful lady who arranged for the carpet to be delivered 2 days after my return 3 weeks later. A week later, I chose another one with a 10% further discount for buying again and that arrived promptly also after another discussion with another helpful lady. I now have 2 fabulous rugs at a very decent price. Yes, the 'Handloom Fringe' carpet is shedding where one sits but I well remember a fitted carpet shedding for 6 months prior to stopping. So I hope it will stop eventually. DPD deliver promptly.
