Of Magic Carpets

a "semi-antique" rug from Iran, now gracing my living room floor
Nothing finishes a room quite as well as a hand-knotted oriental rug. I bought this Bibikabad from a dealer in Syracuse NY a couple of years ago. It’s slightly elliptical in shape and therefore blended in perfectly with the (rather worn) furniture and antique oriental already there. It’s possible to buy reasonably priced medium quality handmade rugs online now, too. In the opinion of this humble blogger, a good living room needs hardwood floors, oriental rugs, original oil paintings, watercolors, or prints and plenty of books!
