The Mystique of Samarkand: A Khotan Masterpiece
This exceptional rug from the Ariana Collection features the iconic Khotan design, a style born at the crossroads of the Silk Road. Known for its distinct blend of Chinese, Persian, and Central Asian motifs, this piece showcases a sophisticated geometric composition that feels both ancient and remarkably contemporary.
Hand-knotted by expert Afghan artisans using premium wool, the rug features a luminous ivory field adorned with structured geometric medallions. The palette is a refined harmony of soft blue, earthy brown, and shimmering gold, creating a "magical" visual balance. The Samarkand aesthetic is highly coveted by interior designers for its airy, open feel and its ability to complement both minimalist and traditional interiors.
