Hi Casa,
CB2 used to have a rug called Verse (in white with black handwriting, $300-500, right). They no longer carry it and I really want it. The only rug I can find that's remotely close is the DWR Manuscrit Rug ($3,400, left), and that's way out of my price range. Can you suggest any others in the same style that are more reasonably priced?
Thanks in advance,
To see my suggestion, read more.
Hi petuniasmia,
I love that rug! Good pick. Ballard Designs has a similar rug called Le Poeme ($149-579), which is an indoor/outdoor rug printed with a poem by 17th-century French writer Jean de La Fontaine. It's equally eye-catching and available in both black and chocolate.
If that doesn't work, I recommend scoping out eBay and Craigslist for the Verse rug either used or new.
Hope that helps! Cheers,
Casa

So funny! I was actually looking for the same rug from CB2 and stumbled on Casa's find through Shopstyle. I can't wait to get mine!
1What a great find.
2I had the exact same question as petuniasmia so--thanks so much for asking it--and providing the answer, Casa!
3I could've sworn Overstock had this, but I'm guessing they sold out. I came across a nice pillow though: http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Script-Tan-24-inch-Floor-Pillow/334...
4I had been saving for the VERSE rug when CB2 mysteriously ditched the much-lusted-after design. Of all the rugs of this type though (and nice as this one is), nothing even comes close to being as lush and dramatic as the CB2 design. Since the folks at CB2 could care less, it's blows my mind that nobody else has picked up the ball and brought VERSE back. I. WOULD. POUNCE! For me, it will always be The One That Got Away.
