On the Design:

Each piece in this collection is a unique reimagining of traditional designs and antique rugs in one of the most luxurious new qualities and high knot counts available today. This particular rug—entitled “Simorgh”—witnesses a large-scale oval medallion in the center which encloses stylized depictions of the Simorgh, a mythical bird from Persian mythology (a symbol of profound wisdom and divine guidance). Its magnificent plumage and regal bearing have been rendered with remarkable artistry here in turquoise blue, and chocolate brown tones, surrounded by swirling motifs and floral elements in similar hues which echo the grandeur associated with the Simurgh and further add to the charm and visual interest this design carries. This gorgeous rug denotes the modish aesthetics of one of the most bold and intricate creations from any atelier in the world today. See less
