Pink & Blue Persian Hand-Tufted Wool Carpet, 5 × 8 ft

A hand-tufted carpet in pink and blue wool with Persian-inspired pattern, the dense all-over florals and medallions built up in pile. Persian carpets work in layered vocabulary — central medallions, corner spandrels, multiple border guards, dense ground filled with vine work and floral stems — drawn from the court weaving traditions of Safavid Iran. Pink and blue together read softer than the reds and navies of traditional Persian work, the palette suited to interiors where the floor needs ornament without overwhelming the room. Tufting builds pile by punching yarn into a backing, the technique producing denser surface than flatweave and faster execution than knotting. Woven in the Uttar Pradesh carpet belt by artisans working hand-tufting looms. The Persian pattern suits living rooms, bedrooms, sitting areas where classic vocabulary works without feeling museum-bound.
