Drawn from the storied weaving tradition of Kashan, this hand-knotted Indo Kashan rug presents one of the most beloved layouts in classical Persian design. The rug features a rich sage green field covered in a full allover floral scroll, where curving ivory vines branch continuously into coral, rose, and soft blue blossoms, dark navy accents punctuating the composition with just enough contrast to give it depth and definition. The ivory border carries a dense procession of palmettes and flowering sprays that mirror the energy of the field, framed by narrow coral and sage guards that tie the two together seamlessly. Every element of the design, from the fluidity of the scrollwork to the precision of each individual bloom, reflects the high draftsmanship that Indo Kashan weavers are known for. Hand-knotted in wool on a cotton foundation, this rug is built to last and designed to be noticed.

Story Behind the Art: Indo Kashan rugs (made in India) are a specific rug style that favors the weaving and design techniques of the authentic Kashan rugs from Iran. The rugs retain the essence of the Persian rugs and produce identical themes and patterns consisting of beautifully designed medallions, niches, trees and figural motifs and all-over floral motifs. It was during the Mughal rule in India that the rug industry reached its zenith and came on its own as an art form. Tight weaving, silk like wool, bright, deep color range and realistic motifs became the defining feature of Indian rugs. It is this combination of exquisitely detailed and painstaking craftsmanship and masterful interplay of design elements that has earned Indian rugs age-defying allure and patronship defying borders and time.
