Runner from Mirzapur with Self Weave in Shades... Lot n° 33

Mirzapur is known for its gorgeous handwoven rugs, of which this runner is a fine example. The region comprises of old weaver families, wherein the skill has been perfected over generations of practise with the loom. This explains the high-precision weave of this rug, which is best appreciated by zooming in on each unit surface area of this rug. Together with the zigzag-pattern and the strip of delicately tied tassels along the smaller edges, these are the hallmarks of the quintessential Indian rug.The colour palette of this rug is what makes it a statement choice for home decor. A pale creamy red in the centre gives way to more full-bodied shades of the same colour. Lain along the length of your dining table or at the foot of your bed, it would set a gathered, almost sombre, tone to your space. It is the perfect conversation-starter for when you have guests over, given that it is a one-of-a-kind work of art made in a remote recess of North India. Having been handpicked for its beauty and workmanship, this is one buy you cannot go wrong with. Specifications: Jute 68 inch x 25 inch
