Modern Traditional Samarkand Medallion Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug “Aura” N12549 10'0" × 13'9" $22,000

A restrained Samarkand medallion pattern gives this hand-knotted wool rug a quietly graphic presence. On a light beige field, softly worn circular emblems, small rosettes, and delicate geometric details are spaced with generous negative room, while a slim border of diagonal striping frames the composition with crisp rhythm. The result is decorative, but never busy.

Warm taupe, pale yellow, and tan tones appear like sunlight filtering through an aged textile, keeping the palette calm and layered rather than ornate. The central axis is clear but never heavy, allowing the rug to read as traditional in reference and contemporary in attitude. It brings a measured sense of structure to rooms that favor softness, openness, and a collected look.

Named Aura, the rug reflects the soft halo of golden medallions that seem to glow across the surface. Its hand-knotted wool construction adds a refined, durable hand suited to living rooms, dining rooms, or transitional interiors that call for a decorative modern traditional rug with an easy, elevated feel.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this contemporary rug showcases the fusion of heritage techniques and modern aesthetics that defines the gallery's celebrated design philosophy. With a broad spectrum of styles and price points, DLB makes fine carpet art attainable for both seasoned collectors and first-time buyers.

Available for custom production in any size and color palette.
