Contemporary Solid Silken Blue Hand-Knotted Silk Rug “ciel N12867 10'0" × 11'0" $20,000

Pale silken blue and misted gray drift across this contemporary silk rug, giving the open field a calm, atmospheric presence. With no border, medallion, or repeat, the design reads as a restrained abstract plane whose appeal lies in nuance rather than ornament.

Hand-knotted in silk, the surface has a luminous sheen and a fine, even hand that catches light in delicate shifts. Subtle abrash and cloud-like tonal variation soften the solid composition, creating depth without breaking its quiet minimalism. The effect is polished but never rigid, making it ideal for rooms that call for softness and visual clarity.

Named Ciel, a reference to the sky, the rug reflects the tranquil expanse of dawn and the serene, celestial shading visible in its palette. As a modern solid rug, it anchors contemporary interiors with understated refinement and works especially well beneath sculptural furniture, in serene living rooms, or layered into sophisticated, design-forward spaces where a quiet foundation is essential and enduring overall.

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.

A bespoke interpretation of this design is available upon request.
