On the Design:

Bright tones of ivory, off-white and beige-brown in the field and border underscore particularly large-scale floral patterns in light colors—with a particular presence of salmon red, charcoal, and light gold tones in the palmettes, cypress trees, and paisley motifs at play. Keen eyes will further note the subtle geometry in the field, and the brilliant sense of depth and dimension this subdued element lends among the many beauties of the piece. Admirers of the craft will further note how the silk’s natural, gentle sheen plays into the sense of movement, presence, and overall richness of the rug—an inventive reimagining of the graphic, almost dramatic beauty of tribal rugs with an elegant touch. less
