We tend not to think much about our furniture’s feelings, but these tufted linen rugs are giving us a change of heart, presenting positive and negative takes on the same floor covering. We know which one’s going in the bathroom…

It’s extremely rare that a rug catches our eye…in fact, this may be the first time it’s ever happened.
But this Thomas Paul rug isn’t your average piece of dandelion décor. Spanning eight feet across, all those stems make for quite a vanishing point, to the point that the black spot in the middle starts to look like the bottom of a pit. In other words, it’s halfway between Urban Outfitters and Trompe L’Oeil.
Of course, we’re not quite at the point of paying a grand for it. But it’s still an impressive piece of work.

The gold standard of rugs is still the oversized Persian covering, but it’s been the gold standard for well over a century now. Maybe it’s time for something a bit more modern.
This rug from the French company Chevalier Edition is a good example (courtesy of Mr. Spear). It won’t give you the stateliness of a Persian rug, but it has the advantage of looking like it came from the twenty-first century, not the nineteenth.
