The composition is elevated by nuanced accents of brown, golden yellow, ivory, and soft blues—tones that have matured beautifully over time thanks to the use of natural vegetable dyes. These subtle shifts in color, known as abrash, reflect the authenticity and artisanal nature of the weaving process. Ideal for sophisticated interiors, this rug brings a timeless elegance and a sense of storied craftsmanship to both traditional and contemporary settings. A distinguished choice for interior designers and collectors seeking an heirloom-quality piece.
