An antique cream field covered with an all-over floral lattice: rows of pointed ogee frames, outlined in fine scrolling vines, each holding a stylised flower spray, with leafy stems, small blossoms and buds filling the spaces between them. The pattern runs to every edge with no border, finished with a short fringe.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan in wool with silk. The flowers and vines are drawn in soft tones close to the cream ground, so from a distance the rug reads as one light, calm surface, and the lattice and flowers only appear as you come closer. At 199×294cm this is a large rug for a living room or dining room.
