Rug material

Only one available — one-of-a-kind.

A rose-pink field carrying a lobed medallion with pendants at either end, surrounded by fine scrolling vine, palmettes and small blossoms in rose, sky blue, lilac, gold and wine. The rose-pink main border is the feature: worked into it at intervals are vases with flowers rising from them, alternating with large scrolling leaves. Narrow guard bands close the design and there is an inscribed cartouche in the outer band at one end.

Hand-knotted in wool at a fine gauge, fully curvilinear throughout. The palette is soft and warm — cream and rose carrying the structure, with the brighter colours confined to the small motifs — so the rug reads quiet at a distance and detailed close up. At 151×202cm this is a compact rug, suited to a study, a bedroom, beside a bed or in front of a fireplace, where a room-sized piece would be too much.

This is a fine, hand-knotted piece that rewards a little extra care. 100% wool pile with a natural fringe at both ends, and an inscribed cartouche in the outer border at one end.

Both the cream field and the rose border are pale, so this rug shows traffic and spills more readily than a dark one. Rose is a weak red and among the less light-fast colours here, so the border will lose tone before the field does. A small rug also concentrates its wear rather than spreading it, so a rug pad and regular rotation matter more than on a room-sized piece.

There are vases in the border. Look along the wide rose band and you will find small urns at regular intervals with flowers springing from their mouths, alternating with large scrolling leaves. The vase is one of the oldest devices in Persian design and it carries a specific idea — flowers cut and arranged rather than growing wild, which is to say a garden brought indoors. On a field rug the vase usually sits at the centre as the subject of the whole composition; putting it in the border instead turns it into a repeating rhythm and leaves the medallion free to do the work at the centre. It is a quieter use of a strong motif. Note that the brighter colours on this rug — the wine, the sky blue, the gold — are all confined to motifs no larger than a thumbnail, while cream and rose carry everything structural. That is why the rug reads calm from a doorway and turns out to be full of colour when you kneel to it.
