Hand-knotted in natural silk, this 3x6 runner is a new addition to Rug & Kilim's Block Print collection—an innovative line translating the charm of traditional block printing into a contemporary design. Bold botanical motifs and sculpted texture create a refined, modern statement.
On the Design:
Admirers of contemporary minimalism will appreciate the effortless rhythm of this elegant runner. An allover arrangement of stylized botanical sprigs repeats across a warm ivory ground, rendered in deep charcoal to evoke the crisp contrast of traditional hand block prints. The deliberate spacing and subtle variation between motifs lend the design an organic cadence, balancing graphic simplicity with artisanal charm in a design that feels both timeless and refreshingly modern.
Its luxurious natural silk construction enhances the pattern through a sculpted high-low texture that introduces remarkable visual depth. The raised botanical motifs shimmer gently as they catch changing light, standing in elegant contrast to the softly recessed field. This interplay of texture and luminosity reflects Rug & Kilim's contemporary interpretation of block printing heritage, resulting in a sophisticated runner equally suited to hallways, entryways, and intimate transitional spaces.
The accompanying book, Château Lafite: The Almanac by Saskia de Rothschild, with a foreword by Baron Éric de Rothschild, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B209) can be acquired independently through our bookstore, here.
