About the Item

Extremely fine vintage Kashmiri rug, silk on silk, hand knotted, circa 1950s Design: Medalion A Kashmir rug is a hand knotted oriental rug from Kashmir which is associated with Kashmiri handicrafts. Kashmir rugs or carpets have intricate designs that are primarily oriental, floral style in a range of colors, sizes and quality. Kashmir carpets are handmade, hand knotted, and are primarily made using pure wool, pure silk and occasionally wool and silk blends. These are available in wide-ranging colors, designs and sizes. Kashmir rugs are primarily made in the vicinity of Srinagar, Kashmir in North India and neighboring villages in rural parts of Kashmir. Kashmir rugs are one of the most sought-after artworks by connoisseurs around the world owing to their exceptional workmanship. Kashmir rugs are available in a range of standard sizes, such as 3'x2', 4'x2'6", 5'x3', 6'x4', 7'x5', 10'x8', 12'x9', 14'x10', 15'x12' and 18'x12'. Larger sizes than these dimensions are mostly custom made. Kashmir rugs are renowned to have bright, jewel-like color tones such as sapphire blue, ruby red, emerald green, aquamarine, amethyst, and ivory. Rugs from Kashmir are traditionally made in oriental, floral designs that typically involve the significant and culturally important motifs such as the paisley, chinar tree, (the oriental plane) and tree-of-life. Most of these designs are rooted in the Kashmiri way of life and are a symbolic representation of the age-old Kashmir tradition of hospitality, warmth, and love. It is often said in Kashmir folklore that a home is incomplete without a soul - a Kashmir carpet. The ethos of Kashmir culture is often represented in the motifs of a Kashmir rug. Although, the art of making these gorgeous rugs is not native to Kashmir and was first introduced nearly 400 years back by the Mughal rulers in India. Yet the indigenous brilliance of the local crafts-persons has made Kashmir carpets one of the most sought after works of art in the world. Rugs of Kashmir have always found more appeal due to their quaint designs and an interesting blend of Classic colors inspired by the cultural microcosm of Kashmir and at times the colors were contemporary in nature that made carpets of Kashmir widely popular across the United States, India, Pakistan and Europe.

Volta Rug by A. Vetra

Located in Geneve, CH

Volta rug by A. Vetra Dimensions: W 140 x H 200 cm Materials: Cotton, Himalayan wool and linen. Hand knotted / Tibetan knot. One of a kind. Solemn attitude and permanent form. Volta rug embodies architectural archetype shapes and celebrates simplicity as timeless aesthetic through the interaction between rhythmic layouts, sculptural forms and tactile look. It is rich in structures and materials: rough surfaces are combined with soft yarns and forms that give a strong contrast in tactility and appeal. The high pile of the arches figures lays on top of the flat loops, giving the impression that a carpet rests on top of another one. A. Vetra shapes concepts with a strong tactile identity and a human trace. It’s a project that explores craft and narratives rooted in a warm and familiar Mediterranean atmosphere, finding its strongest basis in slow processes, fascination for the handmade and connection with territories. As textile and home accessories editor, A. Vetra creates numbered-edition collections through collaborations with artisanal identities. Tangible objects that tell stories of the matter, manual abilities and long traditions. — A. Vetra was initiated in 2019 by Giulia Ferraris...
