In Safavieh's Ganges River rugs, time-honored hand-weaving techniques and authentic Persian designs are updated in color and pattern for 21st century homes. Each rug is hand-knotted in India by artisans whose ancestors have perfected the craft sincePersian rug weaving was introduced to India in the 16th century. Extra-soft New Zealand wool is densely hand-knotted for exquisite detail, and each rug is finished with a luster wash to recreate the aged patina and decorator look of prized antique carpets.
Initially it looks more olive in person, but has something of a color shifting ability depending on the lighting. Gorgeous rug, so delighted with this purchase.. Bria. Sat Feb 07 2026
