{"product_id":"ivory-handknotted-bamboosilk-aor21665","title":"Ivory Beige 6x8'10'' Modern Sherpa Abstract Hand Knotted Bamboo Silk Oriental Area Rug","description":"Ivory, beige and a splash of turquoise come together in this modern Sherpa abstract Oriental area rug, hand knotted from natural bamboo silk fibers. Deep charcoal gives the design its grounding weight, while cool turquoise accents sparkle against silky neutral tones in an expressive, textured composition. The bamboo silk is tied over a strong cotton structure, and the resulting pile delivers a subtle sheen and refined luster across the surface. Every glance reveals another layer of organic movement, which makes the rug feel more like a work of art than a floor covering. Place it in a living room to lead the color story, in a bedroom to add a serene yet modern touch, or in a dining room to create an elegant gathering spot. It is just as effective in a home office, where a little artistic energy goes a long way. Handmade and thoughtfully balanced, this neutral palette statement rug brings understated glamour to contemporary homes. Charcoal anchors the design, ivory lifts it, and turquoise adds the unexpected twist, so the rug feels fresh from the first day to the last. Quietly bold, it makes a smart base for layering art, textiles and furniture.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 6x8'10\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Bamboo Silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Ivory, Beige, Charcoal, Turquoise, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.6 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: AOR21665\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Tibetan rug weaving reflects a centuries-old tradition in which textiles served both practical and decorative roles. Historic designs drew inspiration from geometric forms, symbolic imagery, mythical creatures, floral elements, and patterns found in the natural world. The tradition entered an important new chapter after 1959, when Tibetan weaving communities expanded into Nepal and India and the craft developed for a broader international market. By the 1970s, Tibetan-style rugs had become increasingly recognized worldwide, with Nepalese artisans playing an important role in preserving and developing established weaving methods. A defining characteristic is the Tibetan knot, a distinctive slit-loop technique used to create a substantial pile with noticeable depth, softness, and texture. Contemporary Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs continue this design heritage through everything from branching florals and symbolic animal motifs to geometric compositions and free-form modern patterns, allowing traditional craftsmanship to adapt naturally to contemporary interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Oriental Rug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67703760191708,"sku":"AOR21665","price":499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/1996\/6684\/files\/A21665.jpg?v=1791969850","url":"https:\/\/americanorientalrug.com\/products\/ivory-handknotted-bamboosilk-aor21665","provider":"americanorientalrug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
