Hand-knotted along the historic Silk Road in East Turkestan (Khotan / Yarkand), this authentic antique Samarkand rug showcases an unusually sophisticated color palette and striking geometric medallion composition. Masterfully woven from 100% organic, hand-spun wool, the rug features a delicate peach and ivory field layered with classic Central Asian geometric medallions in contrasting shade shifts of cobalt and soft blues, warm rust, and earthy terracotta.
Highly prized by premier interior designers and fine textile connoisseurs, this rare oversized gallery-scale piece exhibits exquisite natural abrash color shifts and a low-profile patina that only genuine age can cultivate. Its harmonious blend of warm terracotta and cool blue tones makes it a commanding focal point for grand living rooms, formal dining halls, executive suites, or layered luxury interiors. Ethically preserved and steeped in heritage, this one-of-a-kind antique brings museum-grade craftsmanship and timeless Silk Road history to any space.
