Safavieh Soho Collection Explosions Handmade New Zealand Wool Area Runner, 2-Feet 6-Inch by 6-Feet, Black and White

A steely blue patchwork of traditional Persian designs gives this Momeni area rug a timelessly sophisticated look. Drop-stitched polypropylene creates a highly durable pile while maintaining luxurious texture and depth.

Shine a light on the holy family with a porcelain nativity scene that doubles as a candle holder. Remove the roof of the stable to set a tea light in its base, where Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus gather. From Villeroy & Boch.

Sharp architectural lines contrast the natural world in this arresting image by Ashley Beck. A black-and-white giclee print intensifies the dramatic lighting of a cloud-covered day and brings a seriousness and depth to the room-defining landscape.
