This giant world map rug features abstracted depictions of the countries of the world, as well as their flags (including Israel and the United States) along the border. The cloudy blue of the background makes for a good ocean, and the bright contrasting oranges, reds, greens, yellows, and blues help define the countries. The names of the countries are written in Farsi script. The Soviet Union is notably still intact on this rug, probably dating it to before the split in 1991.
This rug does not lay flat, but is perfect for hanging on a wall as an art piece. There is an approximately 2in long cut in the lower right side of the rug.
