About the Item
More than just a floor covering, this exquisite Sultanabad wool area rug is a genuine work of art, uniquely embodying centuries of rich Turkish weaving traditions re-imagined with a sophisticated contemporary aesthetic.
Measuring an impressive 10 feet 2 inches by 14 feet (122 inches x 168 inches), this generously proportioned masterpiece is ideally sized to anchor and transform large living rooms, expansive dining halls, or opulent master suites, instantly creating an inviting sense of luxurious warmth and modern elegance.
Its commanding presence and intricate design, featuring both tribal elements and a deliberate "distressed" or "abrash" effect, instantly elevate any substantial space, imparting an aura of refined taste and intriguing visual depth.
Meticulously hand-knotted from 100% premium, lustrous wool, this rug offers a luxurious blend of exceptional softness underfoot and unparalleled durability, ensuring it remains a cherished centerpiece for generations to come.
The rug's substantial and inviting estimated thickness of approximately 0.4 to 0.6 inches (1 to 1.5 cm) speaks volumes about its robust, artisan-crafted construction, promising superior underfoot comfort and long-lasting resilience.
With an estimated weight of 130 to 160 pounds (59 to 72 kg), this rug's impressive density guarantees excellent sound absorption, superior insulation against cold floors, and robust stability, making it perfectly suited for high-traffic, prominent areas within your home.
A Contemporary Reimagining of Sultanabad Design – Blending Tradition with Modern Artistry:
This exquisite area rug masterfully embodies the revered Sultanabad design, a style rooted deeply in classical Persian weaving traditions from the late 19th century, yet presented here with a distinctly modern twist.
The design artfully merges classic motifs – such as stylized floral elements, intricate geometric patterns, and borders inspired by historical Sultanabad aesthetics – with a contemporary approach that might feature subtle "abrash" (color variations), intentional fading, or abstract interpretations.
Unlike the highly structured traditional renditions, this rug’s design uses these elements to create a more fluid, organic, and art-like feel, making it suitable for both classic and highly modern interiors.
Its inclusion in the "Contemporary Collection" highlights this intentional fusion, offering a piece that respects its tribal style heritage while speaking to current trends in interior design.
This specific rug showcases an evolution of the Sultanabad pattern, proving that timeless designs can be continuously reinterpreted to suit new aesthetic demands without losing their historical soul.
A Palpable Historical Connection Reinterpreted for Today:
While the Sultanabad design carries a rich historical period dating back to the late 1800s, this rug's nuanced execution suggests it's a modern creation, likely from the 2000s to 2020s.
This contemporary production deliberately evokes the aged beauty of antique pieces through its unique finish, allowing it to seamlessly blend with both vintage and cutting-edge decor.
It's a testament to the enduring appeal of these traditional motifs, demonstrating how they are continually celebrated and re-imagined for new generations and diverse aesthetic preferences.
A Masterful Tapestry of Muted Hues: The Sophisticated Gray/Silver and Taupe Palette:
The true and profound allure of this Sultanabad area rug lies in its captivating and exceptionally versatile color palette, a masterful blend of sophisticated Shades of Gray/Silver and warm Taupe. This rug is a celebration of modern elegance, where each hue contributes to an overall harmonious and inviting effect, creating an incredibly adaptable foundation for various interior designs.
The dominant and overarching hues are the magnificent Shades of Gray and Silver, which form the expansive field and are intricately woven throughout the patterns, providing a serene and contemporary backdrop. This isn't a singular gray, but a nuanced spectrum ranging from a soft, almost ethereal light gray to a subtle, shimmering silver tone, and occasionally hints of a muted blue-gray (estimated to cover approximately 60-70% of the rug's surface). These cool tones create a luminous and expansive feel, brightening any room it adorns and serving as an incredibly versatile canvas that effortlessly complements modern furniture, sleek metallics, and minimalist aesthetics.
Adding substantial warmth, organic depth, and a grounding presence are the rich Taupe tones (estimated at approximately 25-30%). Taupe in this rug is a wonderfully complex neutral, blending subtle brown and gray undertones, creating an inviting and earthy contrast against the cooler gray/silver field. It appears in the more defined tribal motifs, borders, and often as an underlying texture, adding a natural and calming element that balances the rug's contemporary sheen. This interplay creates a dynamic visual texture that enriches the overall palette.
Beyond these two primary color families, closer inspection reveals subtle accents that enrich the overall harmony and provide a touch of historical warmth. Hints of faded gold, muted bronze, or very soft, almost unnoticeable antique reds or greens might be delicately woven into smaller details or areas designed to look like natural patina (estimated at approximately <5%). These understated secondary colors seamlessly integrate into the overall harmonious scheme, enhancing the rug's aged appeal with nuanced detail and providing gentle luminosity.
This thoughtful and layered integration of diverse, yet harmoniously toned, colors ensures the rug feels profoundly organic, beautifully textured, and incredibly dynamic. The overall effect created by this masterful color combination is one of serene beauty, artistic complexity, and a sophisticated foundation that effortlessly ties together any room's decor, making it a focal point of understated luxury and profound artistic appreciation, perfect for contemporary settings seeking a touch of timeless charm.
A Prized Addition for Contemporary, Persian & Sultanabad Rug Collections:
As a distinguished member of the "Contemporary Collection" as well as the renowned Persian Rugs and Sultanabad Rugs collections, this area rug holds significant artistic, cultural, and undeniable investment value within the world of textiles.
Its unique design, a classic Sultanabad reinterpreted for modern sensibilities, makes it highly sought after by discerning collectors and passionate interior designers globally.
Investing in this rug means acquiring not just a functional item for your floor, but a genuine piece of textile art – a tangible connection to the skilled hands and artistic visions of a bygone era, beautifully re-envisioned for today.
It offers an unparalleled opportunity to infuse your living space with enduring beauty, profound character, and an authentic sense of global heritage, ensuring it remains a captivating conversation piece and a continuous source of aesthetic delight and appreciation for many years to come.
