Condition: This two ewer rug features super bright chartreuse accenting throughout its design. A large tank with some writing sits in the center, flanked by a row of rifles above and below. A table with two ewers sit at the top and bottom of the blue field.
The border consists of tanks and helicopters on a light orangey background interspersed with rifles. Grenade border is organized almost like a grape vine, an interesting contemporary twist on a classic design.
