Made with hand-knotted natural silk, this 3x10 runner rug is a new addition to Rug & Kilim’s Block Print collection—an innovative line celebrating the artisanal charm of block printing reimagined in contemporary hand-knotted form. This piece functions as a lush, textural landscape that honors classical geometric lattice motifs through a bold, contemporary lens. On the Design: Admirers of transitional and textural design will immediately appreciate the architectural elegance and tactile depth of this contemporary runner. The layout embraces a mesmerizing geometric lattice pattern that flows seamlessly across the expansive canvas. Rendered in a remarkably soothing, atmospheric palette of sky blue, deep indigo, and silvery gray, the tonal shifts within the dye beautifully emulate the charming, organic variations found in traditional block printing. The true magic of this piece lies in its bespoke material blend and construction. Hand-knotted with premium natural silk, the artisans have carved the pile to create a striking high-low texture. The raised silk motifs catch ambient light dynamically, offering a pearlescent sheen that contrasts beautifully against the matte foundation. This creates an incredible sense of three-dimensional depth and a deliciously soft handle underfoot. It is a highly versatile and resilient runner, perfectly tailored to bring an elevated, cultured presence to long hallways, galley kitchens, or transitional corridors. The accompanying book, Atelier Zanolli: Fabrics, Fashion, Craft 1905–1939, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B244) can be acquired independently through our bookstore, here.
