Originating from India, this rug features a Khotan design in a transitional style. The background of the rug is a soothing seafoam color, with a salmon border and the main color of teal. Crafted from wool on cotton, this rug boasts a knots per square inch (KPSI) of 104, totaling an impressive 4,204,275 hand-tied knots.
The production process of this rug involves a final wash and multiple finishing steps in Jaipur. The wool used is a blend of Ghazni wool imported from Afghanistan and South African wool. Interestingly, most of these rugs are woven by smaller contractors, with weaving primarily taking place in villages outside of Jaipur, some reaching as far as Bikaner to the west. The asymmetrical Persian knotting technique, a hallmark of Rajasthan rugs, contributes to the vintage appearance of these newly handwoven pieces.
Visually, this rug presents a harmonious blend of muted colors, with predominant light blue and pink hues alongside beige and cream accents. The design features small geometric shapes and floral motifs arranged in a grid-like pattern, with alternating sections of distinct designs. The border showcases densely packed floral and geometric elements that complement the central motif.
Symmetry is a key feature of this rug, evident in its balanced horizontal and vertical design. The pattern density varies slightly across the rug, with the lower quarter displaying a denser arrangement of intricate patterns and stripes. The overall design emanates a vintage aesthetic, with the colors subtly blended to evoke a sense of aged elegance.
