This palace-size Peshawar rug measures 18'6" x 24'2" and brings a soft, light, modern feeling to a grand space. Hand-knotted in wool on a cotton foundation, it pairs a paper-white field with a slate-blue allover design, gently washed for a calm, faded look that works as easily in a bright contemporary room as in a traditional one.
A 17th-Century Design, Newly Woven
The drawing takes its cue from the famous Polonaise carpets of 17th-century Persia, the lavish court pieces once woven with silk and metal thread for European nobility. Here that heritage pattern of scrolling vines, palmettes, and broad leafy forms is reinterpreted as a brand-new rug, so you get the grandeur and history of the design with the fresh wool, clean foundation, and full pile of a piece made today. The result feels collected and timeless rather than dated.
Color and Placement
The field reads as a quiet paper white, almost ivory, with the allover pattern carried in slate and soft blue and shaded with beige and gray. A blue border frames the field and gives the pale composition its structure. The whole palette is muted and airy, the kind of light, washed coloring that opens up a large room rather than weighing it down. At this palace size it is built to fill a great room, a formal living or dining space, or a grand entry where a smaller rug would be lost.
Construction and Origin
This rug is hand-knotted in Afghanistan in the Peshawar tradition, known for soft hand-spun wool, gentle vegetable-dyed tones, and the washed finish that gives these pieces their mellow, low-contrast look. It is woven in wool on a cotton foundation and is brand new and never used.
