Hand-Knotted in natural silk and linen, this 6x9 rug is a sophisticated addition to Rug & Kilim’s Modern Classics collection. This piece functions as a serene, luminous canvas that honors historic polish motifs through a refined, contemporary lens.
On the Design:
This Modern Classics rug features the celebrated Polonaise style, defined by a sophisticated floral design framed by delicate botanical borders. The field is rendered in a refined, tonal palette of ivory and soft beige, punctuated by rhythmic, silver-gray floral and medallion motifs that appear to float gracefully across the luminous background. Complementing the central field is an intricate, classical border showcasing interlocking floral and vine patterns in a muted silver-gray and beige.
Admirers of the craft will appreciate our proprietary technique that both innovates and honors weaving techniques inherent to classical Polonaise style, ensuring the design’s purity is matched by its physical quality. Our natural silk and linen blend’s more durable, weighted body is a hallmark of the collection, specifically engineered for buckle resistance and longevity in high-traffic or heavy-furniture spaces. This rug represents R&K Principal Jahanshah Nazmiyal’s vision to honor the classical aesthetic, serving as a renaissance for these iconic designs through more comfortable, current techniques. It is a sophisticated contribution to the Modern Classics style, achieving timeless functionality and grace.
The accompanying book, Mario Buatta: Anatomy of a Decorator by Emily Evans Eerdmans, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B285) can be acquired independently through our bookstore, here.
