About the Item

Vintage Samarkand Brown Handmade Wool Rug Size: 5'10" × 11'0" (177 × 335 cm) Samarkand and Khotan rugs made in the oasis towns of East Turkestan are true flowers of this arid landscape and the vintage rug before your eyes emanates with beauty in full bloom. Its main field carries the most characteristic to this weaving area design of three medallions and pomegranates which are the oriental symbol of prosperity and fertility. This auspicious message is enclosed within the series of borders with floral and geometric motifs that, through their both Chinese and Middle-Eastern character, exhibit the immense diversity of Samarkand craftsmanship. The color palette of the vintage Samarkand rug flaunts warm earthy tones that will easily match a wide variety of modern interior arrangements. Chocolate brown, paired with sandy beige, rosewood and mauve, is enriched thanks to subtle touches of indigo. Such a composition is not too timid nor bold, just perfect for all connoisseurs of timeless design. 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.
