Hand-knotted in lustrous wool with the calm, graphic repetition that makes a good Bokhara timeless.

Colors run deep madder and wine red, midnight navy-black, ivory, and rust — controlled and high-clarity, the mark of a better Ersari. The long gallery format is made for a hallway or corridor, and also grounds a living room, study, or bedside run; it layers into tribal, bohemian, eclectic, traditional, and mid-century interiors.

Hand-knotted wool pile on a wool foundation with full, even pile and a soft, silky handle. Good vintage condition with light, honest age character. Original ivory wool fringe and secured selvages. Measures 8'1" x 3'7" (97 in. x 43 in.). See less
