Palace Rug Gallery
Carpets & Rugs in Bellevue, WA
Thomas O'Brien by Safavieh is a distinctive collection of area rugs characterized by great surprises of scale and very intricate linear detail. But what sets O'Brien's carpets apart is his talent for reinterpreting textile designs into works of art for the floor. Most striking is his use of vintage cloth collected from many cultures as a design point of reference. O'Brien taps the bold geometric carpet traditions of North Africa and Scandinavia, in lieu of the more formal style of many traditional Eastern genres.
