The design features a dense pattern of horizontal striping in a base of steel blue and gray, boldly accented by prominent lines of oxidized gold and ochre.

On the Design:

This rug is a captivating visual experience, an abstract composition of rhythmic texture and metallic color that transforms the floor plane into a dynamic field reminiscent of aged metal or a weathered wall.

Crafted from fine hand-knotted wool and silk with a dense, low pile, the design leverages precise horizontal lines and layered colors to achieve its profound, kinetic energy.

The pattern is a masterful optical study, appearing as the surface of oxidized copper, a piece of industrial grating, or a heavily layered tapestry.

The entire field is defined by dense, horizontal striping where base layers of cool steel blue, dusty gray, and shadowed slate provide a stable, yet deep foundation.

This cool ground is powerfully interrupted and accented by thin, prominent bands of luminous golden ochre, fiery rust, and pale yellow, which streak across the surface like oxidized lines or embedded veins of metal.

Rendered in a sophisticated, highly variegated palette, the rug's drama is achieved purely through the rhythmic repetition of line and the complexity of its layered hues.

The tactile quality of the wool, combined with the precise execution of the texture, makes this piece a sensory experience as much as a visual one.

It is a powerful statement of modern artistry, transforming any high-end space into a gallery of kinetic abstraction and striking metallic harmony. See less
