On the Design:

Admirers of the craft may appreciate this very special Vintage rug for being not only an exceptional find from one of the most special provenances, but a rarity to find it in such gracious scale, and love in its every inch. Though polychromatic in its beauty, there’s a notable presence of red hues among the many at work. It features a play of medallion and floral patterns in all over style. Connoisseurs will appreciate what an uncommon display of styles this is, with a playful sense of symmetry and scale, too, making it very modern for its age. This is a bold, graphic, personal Vintage piece; a piece of weaving history most likely from a special workshop—this being one of the most elegant and versatile we’ve seen. Existing in healthy condition, this is an exceptional piece well suited for any interior seeking distinction and classic appeal.

Condition:

This Vintage Samarkand rug has minimal wear consistent with age and origin. See less
