Qum produces some of the finest silk carpets in Iran, working in pure silk at knot densities that make the craft closer to illustration than weaving. This medium format piece is knotted at 484 knots per square inch in 100 percent silk on silk.
The multicolour palette with black border at 6 ft 7 in x 4 ft 4 in shifts with the light in a way only silk produces. The floral curvilinear design is drawn from the classical Persian vocabulary executed at a precision wool cannot achieve. The black border provides a strong, clean frame.
In your home: Best in a formal sitting room or study where foot traffic is light. Works under a glass coffee table. Suits rooms with dark walls and both classic and contemporary interiors.
