Rug Society Pluto Rug Geometric Collection

A design inspired by the image of Pluto, the ninth and smallest planet in the solar system, is composed primarily of rock and ice. The representation in shades of blue symbolizes the ice, the stain presented through circles of different colors represents all the other planets that are part of the solar system. PLUTO rug design was born by the combination of different geometric designs and the use of hand-tufted and overtufting techniques.
