An Indian Kashmiri Rug hand knotted in silk in the North of the country. The rug features a large diamond central medallion surrounded by blossoms and palmettes. These motifs are also continued into the central area and borders of the rug. Terracotta, pale and deep blue, cream and pink colours are used within this piece to form the intricate floral patterns.
Kashmiri Rugs are woven by master craftspeople in North India, with fine weaves and highly detailed designs. These designs originate from those found on Persian Rugs centuries ago, and these are showcased in either fine wool or silk. This rug uses silk to form the pile, and the quality of the material, combined with the weavers' skill, makes it very soft underfoot and highly durable. The rug is in excellent condition and has no sign of wear.
This Indian Kashmir Silk Rug is a fine piece with mellow, soft furnishing colours perfect for traditional decors. The rug is an excellent design addition to bedrooms, studies and living rooms.
