Vintage Samarkand Floral Pale Sand Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet Pomegranate Design BB8285 7'0" × 14'0" $28,000

This vintage Samarkand hand-knotted wool carpet from East Turkestan reflects the refined weaving tradition of Khotan, where decorative richness is balanced by an understated, lived-in hand. Its vintage character and softly aged surface give the piece an inviting, timeworn presence suited to collected interiors.

Set against a pale sand field, the design unfolds as a quiet compartmentalized lattice in washed ivory, dusty pink, light gray, and muted taupe. Stylized floral rosettes and trellis lines create an allover rhythm that feels both geometric and botanical, while the low-contrast drawing keeps the pattern airy rather than assertive. The faintly faded coloration lends the rug a watercolor softness.

A restrained border with small square accents and subtle guard bands frames the composition without disturbing its calm geometry. Hand-knotted in wool, this Samarkand rug brings texture, warmth, and a measured sense of pattern to rooms that call for visual interest with a gentle touch. It sits easily beneath contemporary furnishings as well as more traditional schemes.
