About the Item

Part of Knots Rugs’ 17th Century Classic Collection, the Polonaise No. 01 is a limited-edition reinterpretation of an original Safavid-era Persian rug, blending historical grandeur with modern sophistication. Inspired by the legendary Polonaise carpets—once prized by European aristocracy and royal courts—this rug maintains its opulent heritage while incorporating contemporary craftsmanship. Hand-knotted from silk and wool, this museum-quality piece showcases a rich arabesque floral pattern and medallion motifs, echoing the exquisite craftsmanship of Persian court weavings. The color palette—featuring aged neutrals, burnished golds, and deep blues—evokes the antique patina of time-worn masterpieces, while modern textural techniques such as oxidization create an elegant 3D relief effect. Historically, Polonaise rugs were woven with gold and silver threads, commissioned as diplomatic gifts and royal treasures throughout Poland, Austria, and Italy. Knots Rugs honors this tradition with a silken sheen and intricate detailing, bridging the gap between 17th-century luxury and contemporary interior design. Each rug takes over six months to hand-knot, ensuring that the artistry and precision of 17th-century Safavid weavers are preserved in every detail. A true statement piece, the Polonaise No. 01 offers timeless elegance for collectors, luxury interiors, and connoisseurs of fine textiles.
