Originating from India, this rug showcases a transitional style known as Khotan Vase design. The background color of this rug is a serene sky blue, complemented by a taupe border. The main color scheme includes various shades of blue, adding depth and character to the design.
Crafted from wool on a cotton foundation, this rug boasts a knotting density of approximately 40 knots per square inch, a characteristic that can vary slightly due to the individual craftsmanship inherent in the cottage industry. These rugs are predominantly woven by smaller contractors who distribute designs, pre-dyed wools, and hand-spun materials to villages outside of Jaipur. The skilled weavers, often working from their own homes, use an asymmetrical Persian knotting technique that lends a vintage and weathered appearance to the rugs.
The unique construction and finishing processes contribute to the antique look of these newly woven rugs. The combination of Ghazni wool from Afghanistan and South African wool results in a blend that enhances both the texture and durability of the rug. The foundation comprises a double wefted structure with a thick bottom weft and a finer upper weft for added strength and visual interest.
Drawing inspiration from antique Persian and Khotanese carpets, the design of this rug blends traditional elements with modern sensibilities. The intricate pattern features rows of potted plants, each with distinct details and arrangements. The soft sky blue background serves as a gentle backdrop for the white, beige, light brown, and pale green design elements.
Characterized by a balanced symmetry, moderate pattern density, and a seamless design that extends from edge to edge, this rug exemplifies a harmonious fusion of elegance and intricacy.
