Ivory Aqua 5'10''x8'11'' Traditional Kashan Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug

Soft, cool and quietly elegant, this Ivory Aqua Traditional Kashan is a hand knotted wool Oriental area rug with Persian-style grace. Gray-blue and peach flowers circle a medallion at the center of a cream ground, slender vines loop around that medallion, and a wide gray-blue border encloses the entire design. Touches of navy and rose enrich the border, giving the palette depth without losing its gentle character. Knotted by hand in wool, the dense pile wears evenly, welcomes pets and kids, and ends in generous ivory fringe. Vacuuming regularly, with the beater bar switched off, preserves the crisp definition of the pattern. In a bedroom the cool tones feel restful, in a living room they anchor a seating area, and in a dining room or home office they add tradition with a light touch. Cream, light pink and natural woods sit comfortably nearby. Its cool undertones also make a room feel a little lighter and more open, which is a welcome quality in smaller spaces and larger ones alike. This is a handmade rug for anyone who loves a refined, airy palette and an unhurried, traditional design.

Story Behind the Art: Kashan rugs take their name from the Persian city of Kashan in Iran, long known for tight weaving and exceptional craftsmanship. The design vocabulary features dense, repeating arabesques, flower stems, palmettes, rosettes, and blossom-and-leaf motifs, typically arranged around a central medallion with pendant details and ornate corner spandrels. In the 16th century, master weavers and dyers carried the Kashan design tradition into the region now known as Pakistan and India, where their work sometimes rivaled the quality produced in Persia itself, extending this refined, tightly patterned style well beyond its original home.
