I accidentally bought a Star Wars rug.. is it obvious?

I've never seen Star Wars but I only clocked on my order confirmation email that this was from the Star Wars range.

Can someone who has seen Star Wars let me know if it's obvious from looking? Should I return it? Blush

It’s got stylised Mandalorian t-visor emblems…I’m a massive Star Wars geek. I’m sure most will just see a lovely rug.

EveningOverRooftops · 25/07/2021 21:45

Oh I’ve seen these rugs and have my eyes in the red/brown one

Yes I’m a Star Wars fan. Only a keen eye will spot the designs but even then most people wouldn’t see it.

It's a lovely rug and no I wouldn't have a clue it was SW

I showed it to DH who is a big SW fan, without telling him what it was and he didn't guess. Once I pointed it out he could see straight away but he didn't twig before then.

transformandriseup · 25/07/2021 21:59

I can see the Mando helmets and Grogu in the middle but I am a big fan AND I had to stare at it for 10 minutes. Honestly most people wouldn't notice this at all on a first look.

AliceMcK · 25/07/2021 22:05

Star Wars fan here, I would not say it’s obviously Star Wars. It’s very nice x

RubyGoat · 25/07/2021 22:06

I asked my DH - I wouldn't know but he's a Star Wars nut. I didn't tell him the theme though, & he couldn't tell until I told him. Then he spotted the tie fighter & some death star thing.

RubyGoat · 25/07/2021 22:08

Oh God, he's getting ideas now. HmmGrin

user1494055864 · 25/07/2021 22:10

I literally sleep with a baby yoda every night Grin (a toy one), but this in no way looked star wars-y to me! It's a really nice rug, and a great conversation piece!

RubyGoat · 25/07/2021 22:16

FFS. He's now found the website selling the rugs, discovered they sell it in black (with a pale design) which apparently makes it much easier to see what the designs are, & is trying to figure out what everything is. I may as well go to bed... FML

Better make some room for your new rug Grin

Why can no one see Grogu in the middle!

ImInStealthMode · 25/07/2021 22:26

DP is a Star Wars fan and had to zoom in and examine it before spotting what the 'theme' I'd asked him to identify was.

I wouldn't have had a clue at all, and just think it's a nice rug.

FlaviaAlbiaWantsLangClegBack · 25/07/2021 22:28

I had to highlight and enlarge the image and tell DH what it was supposed to be before he twigged and we're all Star Wars fans in this house.

When we looked at the whole series after that he liked the x wings one but I have to draw the line somewhere Grin

They're pricey but it's so tempting to be able to put it in the wash...

Holothane · 25/07/2021 22:29

I’ve got a welcome to the dark side, with Darth Vader doormat outside our door, that’s a lovely rug.

Thehogfatherstolemycurry · 25/07/2021 22:34

Omg I love it.
I'm a big Mandalorian fan though. You have to know what you're looking at to see it though iyswim, casual observers might not notice. My 11 year old wants it for his room now though!

NameChanged15729 · 25/07/2021 22:58

I can see it now but I wouldn’t have noticed it if I hadn’t read the description of baby yoda in the middle!
It’s a really nice rug with a really nice pattern. I don’t think people would know unless they had been looking at the rug previously.

TalkingOutYerArse · 25/07/2021 23:04

Looks great OP

AlanThePig · 25/07/2021 23:42

I recognised it. But I. Have a Star Wars room with a full size Han in carbonite so I accept I’m a bit of a geek.
Rather love the mando helmets. Very subtle

SupermanWithTheGreyHair · 25/07/2021 23:51

Love this thread. 🤣 You have to keep the rug OP. This has really made me laugh so thank you.

JingleCatJingle · 25/07/2021 23:55

I can see Grogu! How fabulous. You have a baby Yoda rug.

Myusernameisnotmyusernameno · 25/07/2021 23:57

I really love the rug and wouldn't know it was Star Wars either.

TheCrowening · 26/07/2021 13:33

Oh god now I’m on the website hovering over “buy”…

Ach, it's a Star Wars rug if you want it to be(I might have to buy this now Grin) or just an awesome design, depending on how much Star Wars knowledge you have! It's a lovely rug.
