The fringe of the "Magic Carpet", and the designs on the surface of the carpet, were all made of mosaic tiles and were rock hard to the touch.

The Designs
The designs, "woven" in to the surface of the mosaic carpet, were abstract, dramatic, and lovely.

The Fringe
A closer shot of the fringe of the "Magic Carpet" was composed of long thin white ceramic tiles. Notice how some overlaid others which made it appear more real from a distance.

Scissors And Tape
Someone had augmented the sculpture by leaving a roll of packing tape and a pair of scissors on top of the "Magic Carpet" as if ready to fly off to the UPS store.
