There’s nothing like stepping out of bed or the shower onto a plush fur rug, even if it’s just the $40 sheepskin variety from Ikea. For those whose budgets stretch beyond the big blue box, Great Outfit provides some of the most luxurious fur rugs and interior products we’ve come across. In addition to rugs, the Finish fur company’s Gof Living collection includes a variety of ultra-soft blankets and cushions, each finished in the finest natural materials available.

Each of the twenty-six rugs in the collection carry unique themes, from the woman’s lips in the Bacio rug pictured above to the serpent chomping the forbidden fruit in Amiamo il Serpente (thumb 1).

Despite the Renaissance inspiration, Roubini’s latest art rugs carry a fresh contemporary look that could work with a variety of interior design schemes. All 26 rugs are hand-knotted silk and wool pile, and are available in standard or custom sizes.
