Modern Hand-Knotted Stripes Light Gray Handmade Silk Rug “Serica” N12104 8'9" × 11'0" $13,000

The contemporary rug before your eyes was meticulously hand-knotted of high-quality silk and wool by a skilled artisan. Such a careful execution resulted in its unique texture as well as firm and dependable structure. If properly maintained, this contemporary rug will withstand years of usage without the slightest signs of wear.

In terms of design, this contemporary rug is as far from the aesthetics of antiquity as possible. It belongs to the category of solid rugs, neutral in color and patternless. The only ornament is a delicate striation executed in two shade of beige. Such a minimalistic form makes sure the rug will match all kinds of décor, optically enlarging the space and creating an ideal backdrop for other, more saturated shades.

Silk-blend rugs are absolutely unmatched in terms of softness and luster of the pile while natural wool is a guarantee of long-lasting durability and suppleness. Realizing the value of these noble natural fibers as well as the perfection that stems from traditional craft, Doris Leslie Blau uses the lore of ancient weavers for making our modern and custom rugs.

Doris Leslie Blau carries an exceptional collection of original modern rugs in many styles and materials. Contemporary hand-made rugs are a bridge throughout history, they are the fruit of the constant evolution of the weaving craft that has accompanied men since the dawn of civilization.
