Midcentury Samarkand Handwoven Wool Rug Doris Leslie Blau

About the Item

Midcentury Samarkand beige and brown handwoven wool rug Size: 5'9" × 11'3" (175 × 342 cm) The Midcentury Samarkand Beige and Brown Handwoven Wool Rug is a remarkable piece that embodies the rich cultural tapestry of East Turkestan's oasis town of Samarkand. Crafted from the finest wool using centuries-old hand-knotting techniques, the rug showcases a central field adorned with pomegranate motifs—a traditional symbol of prosperity and fertility in the region. This central design is framed by a series of borders featuring floral and geometric patterns that reflect both Chinese and Middle Eastern artistic influences, highlighting the diverse heritage of Samarkand craftsmanship. The rug's warm earthy tones of chocolate brown and beige create an elegant and versatile palette, making it a suitable addition to various modern interior arrangements. Despite its mid-20th-century origin, the rug maintains a firm structure and an exceptionally pleasant pile, indicative of its meticulous craftsmanship and the quality of materials used. This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
