I have been looking at this rug for years in your catalog. On a trip out to Tennessee last fall, I saw the matching pillow in the Orvis store. After I got home I ordered the pillow. When my husband saw it he loved it also. That's when we decided to get the rug, but they were out of stock. When the new catalog came and it was available, we ordered it. It is in my kitchen in front of my sink on our slate floor. Looks great. I own two other rugs from your company, and 7 or 8 pillows. Love them all.
