Originating from India, this transitional style rug features a Serapi design, with an ink blue background and mint border. The main color scheme of the rug is predominantly blue, with the content being wool on cotton.
The rug has undergone multiple finishing processes in Jaipur, known for its expertise in rug production. Made with wool imported from Afghanistan and South African wool, the asymmetric Persian knotting technique adds a unique textured effect to the rug. It has a knot density of approximately 40 knots per square inch, showcasing variations due to the cottage industry nature of its creation.
With a blend of traditional and modern colorations, the design draws inspiration from antique Persian and Khotanese carpets. The wool pile sits on a double wefted, heavily packed foundation, providing a sturdy base for the intricate patterns woven into the rug. The overall construction and finishing give the rug a vintage, worn appearance, resembling antique rugs that have aged gracefully over time.
Visually, the rug flaunts a dense pattern featuring a central medallion surrounded by intricate floral and geometric motifs. The color palette includes pastel and muted tones such as blues, greens, and beiges, contributing to its slightly distressed and vintage look. Symmetrically designed, the rug exhibits mirror-image patterns on either side of its central axis, creating a harmonious visual appeal.
Accompanying the main border, narrower guard borders with simpler designs add contrast to the overall intricacy of the rug. The balance between the dense central field pattern and the detailed borders enhances the rug's aesthetic charm, making it a captivating piece that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern design elements.
