My one and onlyTurkish rug used to belong to my beloved Parents. They bought it long ago on an overseas trip. I appreciate it and until recently could only imagine how they obtained it.
Now I can say I went through a similar rug sales-pitch that they must have gone through, but unlike them, I was unscathed! In Turkey, it's pretty much par-for-the-course to be taken to a rug showroom, get served tea, and tempted with many beautiful rugs that are available for sale. I wish I had the money to spare, but I/we said a firm NO. However, I now have a new goal: to purchase an even more exquisite, time-consuming and consequently more expensive Silk 😍 rug. It will happen someday, Lord willing.
"I'm gonna bless the comment section and tell you what the trick is since it isn't in their linktree: you vacuum both sides of the rug a couple of times."
I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine:
