The pattern is exquisite and the colors so deep and true. I feel as though we have museum-quality artwork in our home and I thank Sr. Chavez for sharing his talents.

"Bright and Cheery! Perfect!"
Exactly what I was looking for...a bright cheery rug to use beneath the barstools at my new kitchen island. The colors are perfect, exactly as pictured, and the craftsmanship is very nice. The wool is thick so I expect this rug will wear well. Couldnt be happier!
