The Brussels Flower Carpet




At Mark Gonsenhauser's Rug and Carpet Superstore we sell some very impressive rugs, but nothing like this!


Every year since 1971 the city of Brussels Belgium creates a beautiful carpet in the main square made entirely of flowers. The colors and patterns are just stunning!   


From the website:
"The actual making of the Carpet is based on a plan worked out in advance, consisting of several stages. Everything starts, often a year in advance, with projects and scale models, illustrating a commissioned theme (such as the commemoration of great events, or the arms and shield of a town, and sometimes the proposals of local horticultural associations). "


Here are some photo's of past "Carpets."













Come visit our 20,000 square foot showroom in the heart of Virginia BeachVA. No matter what your style is…….
