Description

Hand knotted in pure 100 % silk, this geometric rug is an addition to the Modern Classics Collection by Rug … more Hand knotted in pure 100 % silk, this geometric rug is an addition to the Modern Classics Collection by Rug & Kilim, a distinct line among the award-winning atelier’s New & Modern rugs drawing inspiration from the most rare and celebrated classic patterns alike. This particular piece adapts an Anatolian Kilim pattern into pile with a particular sense of grandeur, capturing both the opulence of the red and gold medallion pattern as well as the finesse of the bukagi arrow motifs in the blue background—a time-honored motif widely believed to symbolize themes of familial and romantic unity. The play of the silk’s natural metallic sheen with the lush pile height brings out both the sense of movement and the natural dimensionality in the juxtaposed hues of the medallion and field background; complemented by the vibrant orange and green accents in this bold, colorful classic piece. Achieved by our most reputed long-standing partner loom in India.

About the Collection: Since establishing our trade-only showroom in New York over 20 years ago, the interest in modern and contemporary flooring has been equal parts motivation and inspiration for Josh, who has long invested efforts innovating material and pioneering the designs we add to this aspect of our collections. To that, Josh Nazmiyal’s passion for the history of design has inspired our growing geometric, abstract, and neo-traditional designs with exciting additions, particularly our Homage and Mid Century collections standing as pillars of the collections.

The Homage Collection from our classic style sub collection enjoys inspiration from Josh’s love of European rug sensibilities with a new take on distressed shabby chic. The Mid Century collection, too, draws influence from icons of the 1950s in its growing selection of patterns, both the effort of refining large-scale graph, texture, and color over three years and collaborating with classic and current designers who’ve embraced the style as a new face of modern. less
