This Antique Turkish Silk Rug is a rare work of art, hand-knotted with precision and devotion by master Turkish weavers. A true collector’s piece, it tells an ancient Persian love story through a rich pictorial scene woven entirely in luminous silk. The design reveals a hunting and celebration tableau men hunting, women playing musical instruments, and an enchanting menagerie of rabbits, snakes, lions, tigers, and monkeys.
Flowing through the heart of the composition is a river of milk, streaming from behind the mountains into a tranquil pond, a symbol of purity and eternal love. The borders feature intricate geometric buildings, framing the central scene with architectural harmony.
Every detail glows in soft golden tones blended with subtle natural hues, giving the rug a radiant, almost ethereal quality. The silk pile shimmers gently under the light, enhancing its elegance and depth.
