Rug material

Only one available — one-of-a-kind.

A soft rose pink silk ground with a large cream medallion at its centre, drawn in stepped, angular lines and filled with small red, pale green and navy flowers on fine stems. A small rosette sits above and below the medallion, and the four corners of the field are filled with cream panels of flowering plants. The wide navy border carries rosettes set between bands of olive-gold lattice, between narrow floral guard stripes, with a red outer edge and beige silk fringe at both ends.

Hand-knotted in silk in Qum, Iran. The rose pink and cream are light and gentle, while the dark border gives the rug a clear frame, and the silk pile changes tone as you walk around it. At 100×150cm (about 1 tatami) it suits a bedroom floor or a wall.

100% silk pile, hand-knotted in Qum, with silk fringe at both ends. Silk is strong in tension but delicate in every other respect: it abrades, it marks with water, and it loses lustre permanently if treated like wool.

Light pink and cream show dirt and pressure marks sooner than dark colours, and strong sunlight can fade them unevenly. On a floor, keep it to a spot people cross in socks rather than shoes, or hang it on a wall.

Qum, south of Tehran, is known for the finest silk rugs woven in Iran. Most Qum medallions are drawn in soft curves; this one is drawn in stepped, angular lines, in the manner of the village rugs of north-west Iran, which gives it a crisp, graphic look. The ground is a soft rose pink. At the centre sits a large cream medallion with a stepped outline, filled with small red, pale green and navy flowers on fine stems, and a small rosette sits above and below it. The four corners of the field are filled with cream panels of flowering plants, so the pink ground takes on a six-sided shape. The wide navy border carries rosettes set between bands of olive-gold lattice, between narrow floral guard stripes, and the rug is finished with a red outer edge and beige silk fringe. The rose pink and cream keep the rug light and gentle, while the dark border gives it a clear frame. It suits a bedroom floor, and it is equally at home hung on a wall.
