On the Design:

Connoisseurs may admire this rug’s particularly bright and whimsical sensibility, in which vibrant polychromatic hues underscore a repeat of geometric patterns and floral medallions. Though this form represents a more minimalist approach, admirers of the craft and keen eyes will note inspiration from the Khotan and Samarkand rugs and the many provenances known for repeating it in dense, deftly woven designs as this—a thoughtful and elegant new take on a traditional look. This particular design draws inspiration from vintage and antique Khotan rugs and Samarkand rugs of East Turkestan, known for their archaic motifs (such as the large-scale lotus medallion, cloudband, and other such patterns represented within).
