Five Medallions CoasterRug Set Place Rug This iconic image in ExpressionistFive circular medallions are depicted in the center and the four corners of the classically proportioned 19th century Chinese carpet that inspired this Mouse Rug. The field is composed of bold, stylized flowers countered by a delicately drawn vine and leaf system. The main border contains lotuses and sprays alternating with geometric key patterns, the latter which resemble those found on Chinese lacquered trays and boxes. CHM C Design Caravan Classics
