Oh man. This is the first commercial “home decor” piece I’ve ever seen on a mainstream site that touched on the mournful side of politics. Usually politics are used as an aesthetic, just a short-hand way of grabbing on to what’s essentially a fad. This is something else. I call it the Rug of Grief, and most of my “home furnishings” projects act in a similar way - I just never thought anyone would actually sell such a thing. Who knows if there are buyers, but if I had thousands to throw at a rug, I can tell you I’d prefer this over happy slappy BS. Go see all the pictures.
