1a-punctis rubei by Johannes Gerard

My idea was to design an carpet which could be suitable for many different type of rooms. Including with the choice of different color combinations
The design is based on the pattern of lotus leaves in a pond and on a Japanese Stonegarden. For to bring a tranquil lifeliness and contrast
into the design,I placed first the patterns on top and the bottom of carpet.
Then second I limited my color selection to three colors in restrained tones
Meine Idee war es, einen Teppich zu entwerfen, der geeignet ist für viele verschiedene Arten von Zimmern, mit der Auswahlmöglichkeit unterschiedlicher Farbkombinationen
Das Design basiert auf dem Muster von Lotus blättern in einem Teich
und auf japanischen Steingärten. Um dem Design eine ruhige Lebendigkeit und Kontrast zu vermitteln, platzierte ich zunächst die Muster an die Ober und Unterkante des Teppichs. Als zweites begrenzte ich meine Farbauswahl auf drei Farben in verhaltenen Tönen

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.
