About the Item

Vintage Samarkand Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 5'3" × 10'1" (160 × 307 cm) This exquisite vintage rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. The vintage Samarkand rug from East Turkestan dates back to 1945. Samarkand, historically a significant city along the Silk Road, served as a melting pot of various cultures, including Chinese, Persian, and Turkish influences. The central field of a Samarkand rug typically showcases a medallion enclosed within an opulent border featuring intricate geometric and floral designs. The combination of these elements results in a distinctive and timeless piece that embodies the diverse cultural heritage of the region. The color palette incorporates warm shades of beige, pink, purple and red, creating a harmonious and versatile aesthetic. 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.
