Hand Made Geometric Pattern Wool Area Rug from Guatemala, "Central Star"
Fantastic geometric motifs in navy and crimson adorn a body of champagne in this rectangular area rug. The rug is handwoven from 100% wool fibers through a painstaking process that takes two or three weeks to complete. Presented by the artisans at Guatemala's Momosteco Weavers, the designs on this rug are inspired by the sun, represented by the diamond in the centre. The four corners represent the four cardinal directions. This rug is crafted as part of an effort to preserve the time-honoured weaving traditions that have been passed down for generations.

"Exquisite"
The colors of this rug are indescribably vivid, rich, and beautiful. I would like to have several of these rugs, scattered around my house like rose petals! Simply gorgeous. Yes, it would make a fabulous wall-hanging, but I do have mine in a small guest bathroom and its stunning. Truly great craftsmanship and well worth the price.

"small Guatemalan rug"
Very beautiful style, but not very durable, and the weaving is loose. prone to moth damage, unfortunately. I use it outdoors to protect other wool items from moth damage. I love the colors, though!
