A vivid violet-purple field carries a faded all-over floral in this hand-knotted rug, its palmettes, vines and blossoms drawn in soft magenta, lilac and dusky rose. The overdyed, washed finish gives the traditional Oriental pattern a bold, contemporary jewel-tone glow — saturated purple at a glance, with the intricate botanical detail surfacing as you look closer, all framed by a matching floral border.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from a blend of wool and lustrous silk (80% wool, 20% silk), the pile is dense and soft, and the silk highlights lift the pattern so it shifts as you move. Knotted entirely by hand, its gentle abrash and slight irregularities mark it as a genuine one-of-a-kind piece.
