Hand-knotted entirely of silk — both pile and foundation — in the fourth quarter of the 1900s, this piece offers a sophisticated interplay of geometry, color, and sheen that only all-silk construction can achieve. The composition centers on a bold geometric medallion rendered in deep forest green, set against a dramatically contrasting background and framed by a border of complementary design, every element of the pattern catching and reflecting light with a brilliance that transforms the rug throughout the day.

Indian silk rugs of the late 20th century represent the convergence of the ancient Mughal court carpet tradition with the technical mastery of India's finest contemporary workshops — pieces that honor the heritage of Persian and Mughal design while demonstrating the extraordinary skill of Indian silk weavers working at the highest level of their craft.
