Crafted with expert attention to detail, it will surely add a unique decorative touch to any space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can buy this handmade carpet before it arrives in our Tewkesbury showroom. As the rug has not yet been received into our stock, it has yet to be properly photographed; the images are not as good as our normal images. Once the rug has been transferred from our warehouse, we will rephotograph it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis short Afghan rug combines traditional geometric designs with fairly plain stripes. The colour palette works well, with red, gold, rust, and blue used in the design and a soft donkey shade in the background. This lovely little runner will be hardwearing and worn anywhere in the home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease click the hyperlinks in g\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eold\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eif you are interested in additional information.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Afghan_rug\" title=\"Extra Info\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eAfghan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e handmade carpets are becoming very well regarded.
