About the Item

Midcentury Samarkand handmade wool rug Size: 6'3" × 12'4" (190 × 375 cm). Samarkand is a weaving center that sports some of the most iconic and sought-after rug designs in the world. Their effortless charm and Bohemian, free spirit are visible at first glance even to a layman’s eye. Samarkand rugs are flowers born in the arid landscape of Central Asia that can become statement pieces in your decor. The marvelous vintage rug before your eyes is a Classic example of Samarkand Craft. Its main field carries an all-over pomegranate pattern, believed to provide fertility and bring auspiciousness into the household. Consecutive borders carry floral and geometric designs, exhibiting the diversity of Samarkand artistry, permeated with both Middle-Eastern and Far-Asian influences. Everything is rendered in a vivid color palette featuring beige paired with red and orange. Such a composition will invigorate any space, from Classic to contemporary. Next to the gripping design, the vintage rug can boast of refined workmanship. Carefully hand knotted of wool in accordance with centuries-old techniques, the rug has survived until this day in excellent condition. Provided minimum amount of care, it will serve its owners for generations without any signs of wear. Expertly curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this rare rug is a testament to centuries of weaving artistry. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
