No medallion here — the field is given over entirely to an all-over floral, mirrored down the centre and again across the middle, so that every spray of palmettes, curled leaves and rosettes has a twin facing it. The palette is soft salmon rose over a cream ground, with moss green, teal and wine picking out the foliage. Because nothing anchors the centre, the framing falls to the border: a broad near-black band of palmettes and flowering vine, deliberately heavier and darker than the field it contains, with narrow rose and ivory guard stripes and cream fringe at both ends.
Hand-knotted in silk at 30/30 quality — 30 knots to the inch in each direction, about 900 to the square inch and something over 1.3 million knots in this rug. The pile carries a directional sheen, so from one end the salmon warms and comes forward, and from the other the cream ground opens and the green foliage lifts instead. At 77×123cm this suits a bedside, an entry or a spot beside a chair. It reads as a soft, warm-toned rug from across a room, with the dark border doing the work of holding it in place.
