Originating along the legendary Silk Road in East Turkestan (Khotan / Yarkand), this authentic antique Samarkand rug embodies the rich convergence of Persian, Chinese, and Central Asian design traditions. Masterfully hand-knotted using 100% organic, hand-spun wool, it showcases a striking three-medallion geometric layout anchored on a rare, luminous yellow field.

Prized by high-end interior designers and textile collectors alike, this vintage piece features the subtle abrash color variations and honest patina that only genuine age can cultivate. Its low-profile structure, exceptional material quality, and rich historical heritage make it an elevated focal point for contemporary, transitional, or eclectic luxury spaces. Ethically sourced and hand-selected for extraordinary character, this true antique investment piece adds warmth and museum-grade artistry to living rooms, entryways, and layered high-end interiors.
