This masterfully knotted early 20th century samarkand carpet depicts three round vessels bearing floral arrangements, framed by a border of peony blossoms. The carpet's floral designs are all rendered with a geometric style and exceptional symmetry. Sometimes referred to as khotan carpets, samarkand rugs are all from an area in central Asia once called East Turkestan, now known as Xinjiang province, China. Hand-woven with vegetable-dyed wool, this antique carpet has a balanced composition and a bold palette of orange, red, and purple.

What They're Saying

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
