Floral Samarkand Carpet, c. 1930
Located in Chicago, IL
This masterfully knotted early 20th century Samarkand carpet depicts a floral pattern at its center, framed by an ornate geometric border.

Hand-woven with vegetable-dyed wool, this antique carpet has a balanced composition and a beautiful, soft palette of oranges, pinks, and browns. From the collection of Frances and Gary Comer.
