Anderson, S.C. —

Domestic manufacturer of area and accent rugs Orian Rugs has created a new collection of machine-made soft floor coverings that combine Greek flokati fleece styles with thick shag constructions.

Titled Illusions, the collection's intention is to "maximize comfort," the company said. Using state-of-the art technology, Orian combined yarns of different qualities and textures, "resulting in a two-in-one pile."

The palette is contemporary, combining black and cream hues with diffused brown shades. Patterns are carved and stem from nature, such as skins, pebbles and wood.

These woven jacquard rugs, made of 100% olefin, are set to retail for $169.99 for a 5-by-8.
