Originating from India, this rug features a Ziegler design, showcasing a transitional style. The background of the rug is a striking silver color, complemented by a denim border. Grey is the main color scheme of the rug, which is crafted with wool on cotton material.
The weaving and finishing processes of this rug take place in Jaipur, ensuring meticulous craftsmanship. Utilizing chromium dyes enhances color accuracy and lightfastness, especially after undergoing an antique finishing process. With an approximate knot density of 40 knots per square inch, variations may occur due to the cottage industry setting where smaller contractors engage weavers in villages outside Jaipur, extending to regions like Bikaner.
Artisans primarily weave these rugs in their homes, with larger pieces requiring stationary horizontal looms in specific villages. Employing an asymmetrical Persian knotting technique, typical of Rajasthan rugs, these pieces boast a unique construction and finish, contributing to their vintage appearance. The wool blend consists of Ghazni and South African wool, while the foundation comprises a double weft structure with a mix of thick and thin cotton wefts, offering a textured effect similar to aged rugs.
Influenced by antique Persian and Khotanese carpets, the designs on these rugs strike a balance between traditional and modern color palettes. The rug’s detailed pattern features floral and botanical motifs set against a grey backdrop, with accent colors like blue and beige enhancing the intricate design. The inner border separates the central pattern from the elaborate outer border, which showcases larger floral elements in contrasting hues.
Symmetry plays a significant role in the design, with mirrored patterns adding visual harmony and balance to the overall aesthetic. The central medallion, a prominent feature of the rug, likely complements the intricate floral and vine motifs present throughout the piece, contributing to its timeless appeal.
