: Looking at how this rug compares to classical carpets is like comparing jazz to classical music. One can like and appreciate both. This rug is like a Thelonious Monk/Sonny Rollins colorful/jarring interpretation of the traditional regional style. The Ardebil is Beethoven's ninth played by the New York Philharmonic.
: This rug one could lounge in a leather recliner with a glass of single-malt scotch and enjoy. The Ardebil would take dressing up in a tuxedo and pouring a California chardonnay. :-)
I am not comparing this rug to the Ardebil. I am just using the latter to prove that a cluttered design does not necessarily prevent a rug from being admired.
