Hand-knotted in an especially soft Ghazni wool, this particularly design reimagines the nomadic heritage of the Ersari sub-tribe through a contemporary lens, and gorgeously balances the raw energy of historic Central Asian iconography with a refined new high-end quality suitable for high-end interior projects.

On the Design:

Connoisseurs will admire this design as a creative exemplar of the beauty that distinguishes Ersari and tribal rug designs. The field is rendered in a regal colorway of bright coral red and deep blue, where a dense, rhythmic repeat of Boteh (paisley) motifs creates a powerful all-over style. These teardrop-shaped patterns serve as a soulful "talisman" within the weave, capturing the "Gradiance" of traditional Turkmen storytelling.

Admirers of the craft will especially appreciate the use of Ghazni wool, which imparts a plush depth and a variegated, soft texture that invites study. Keen eyes for detail will note that while the paisley motifs follow a traditional geometric lattice, the palette and movement of the design reflect a "high-end twist" on folk art.

Framing the vibrant field are signature black fringe borders, which mark the unique weft of the Burano Collection and provide a sophisticated complement to this historic tribal style. This rug is a masterful synthesis of ancient Turkmen symbolism and contemporary finesse, making it an ideal statement piece for a vast array of discerning design applications. See less
