A deep turquoise silk field with a large lozenge-shaped medallion at the centre in coral and orange, filled with scrolling vines, blossoms and a small dark rosette at its heart, its edges fringed with tiny pink buds. Cream corner spandrels with curving outlines hold sprays of paisley, rosettes and small red flowers that drift out onto the open ground. A coral main border of rosettes, palmettes and leafy vines, between narrow floral guard stripes, frames the design, with a turquoise outer band and silk fringe at both ends. A small woven signature sits in the top border.

Hand-knotted in silk in Qum. The open turquoise ground lets the silk shine, shifting from blue to green as the light moves. At 100×154cm this is a small rug, suited to a spot in front of a sofa, beside a bed or on 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.

The open turquoise ground is the part to protect. Plain silk shows pressure marks and pile direction clearly, and strong sunlight can fade it unevenly. At 100×154cm the rug can go on a floor, but a floor people cross in socks rather than shoes.

Qum, south of Tehran, is known for the finest silk rugs woven in Iran, and this piece follows the classic Persian medallion layout with an unusually bold ground. A large lozenge-shaped medallion in coral and orange sits at the centre, filled with scrolling vines and blossoms around a small dark rosette, its outline fringed with tiny pink buds. Cream spandrels with curving edges fill the four corners, and sprays of paisley, rosettes and small red flowers drift out from them onto the open ground, leaving wide areas of plain turquoise silk to shine. A coral main border of rosettes, palmettes and leafy vines, between narrow floral guard stripes, frames the design, with a turquoise outer band, a small woven signature at the top and silk fringe at both ends. The turquoise shifts from blue to green as the light moves, which is the real pleasure of a silk ground like this. A rug of this size suits a quiet spot in front of a sofa, beside a bed or hung on a wall.
