The rug started life as a sleeping mat.
It was created to provide humans with warmth, protection, rest,
a shroud for the dead, a bundle in which to carry tools.
For those who wandered for years,
following their flocks and herds,
the rug was a singular comfort:
a better bed than the cold ground
or the rough hides of animals.

News
Greetings from the desk of Michael Joseph. Having time to reflect on my walking the summer market in the Atlanta National Oriental Rug Show and talking to colleagues on trends in color and design, I think there have been great strides taken to meet the demands for cooler colors and bringing some blues back to the forefront in room decor.
