Olly's Oval Rag Rug - Teal with Red

Lostine is proud to present the work of craftsman Olly Williams. These beautiful hand made occasional rugs are made out of old suiting fabric that the Philadelphia artist collects and repurposes. Each one is slightly different. Each size is approximate and rarely perfect which just adds to how truly few of a kind and special these rugs are.

I bought the kit and now well into my nineties I have decided to make it a family tradition.  ~ Olly Williams This item is final sale.
