Can anyone help find a similar rug?

[Anonymous]

I am trying to find a rug similar to the one in Vern Yip’s living room (see article). I have a navy couch and am looking for a red rug with blue touches.

I’m sure Vern’s rug is custom but if I could find something with similar colors, that would be great. Thank you!

Write to the author of the article. She might be able to get the information for you.

I doubt that is custom - much more likely, vintage Persian or Moroccan. Check Safavieh, Karastan, or a rug dealer.

This one's nice:

How about a rejuvenation rug like this?

You don't necessarily need to repeat the blue in the rug ... red and blue are pretty powerful statement combos ... might even be too much (high saturation) without a lot of white / cream pillows or armchairs to break things up

Thank you - I really like the Oka one but you raise a good point about the colors. Room has dark wood floors, white wood shutters and white built ins. I had been considering this rug.

Everyone I show it to loves it but I kind of got on the red kick after seeing the article.

The couch is a Lovesac in sapphire. Still looking for chairs.

Thank you for the info!!! I like the rug you linked but it is too small. I also like this one:

red vs blue/white rug

[Anonymous]

I have this rug which is not like the one you posted, but is a muted rusty red rather than the vibrant red. The darker areas of this rug are navy. This red tone may compete less with the blue.

I like the blue and white rug you posted but could never keep that clean in my home with kids

Thank you - these pictures are very helpful. I think it may be best for me to stick with the blue/white/grey and not try to bring red into the mix.
