Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and the Early 20th Century Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles Artistically Handwoven in Persia, the Caucasus, Anatolia, and Around the World
This vintage Afghan Bokhara area rug, hand-knotted in the mid-1900s, features the signature allover geometric Gul medallion pattern — a timeless symbol of tribal artistry. The rich plum field is complemented by dark burgundy and midnight blue motifs, framed with a narrow border in burnt orange, ivory, and brown. Woven with exceptionally fine wool that gleams softly under light, the rug carries a subtle silk-like sheen, adding depth and refinement to its texture. Its harmonious color palette and balanced design make it an exquisite choice for both classic and contemporary interiors.
