EXCLUSIVE DESIGNS
ORIENTAL ELEGANCE
This selection of Oriental rugs is hand-knotted using premium-quality wool and crafted in Iran, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Turkey. Their timeless designs range from traditional classics to elegant contemporary interpretations, making them perfect for living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, hallways and every other living space. Oriental rugs are renowned for their exceptional durability and lasting beauty.
The value of an Oriental rug is determined by the quality of its wool, the number of knots per square metre and the complexity of its design. Some of our rugs feature up to 500,000 knots per square metre, meaning that a single experienced weaver may spend more than nine or ten months completing a large rug measuring 300 × 200 cm.
Among our Oriental collections are Ziegler, Farahan and Omid, hand-knotted in Pakistan and admired for their refined elegance and soft colour palettes, which blend beautifully into both classic and contemporary interiors. We also offer collections such as Shayan, Kothan and Anapurna, woven from premium New Zealand wool using the traditional Tibetan knot. With approximately 80,000 knots per square metre, these rugs are appreciated for their wonderfully soft texture.
Collections such as Shiva and Tabriz represent the highest standards of craftsmanship. Tabriz rugs are among the finest and most prestigious rugs woven in Iran. Our Suzani rugs are finely hand-knotted in Afghanistan using the finest wool on a cotton foundation with the Turkish knot. Their patterns are inspired by the historic Suzani textiles of Uzbekistan and Central Asia, featuring floral motifs that symbolise life and fertility. The word "Suzani" comes from the Persian word Suzan, meaning "needle". Although every rug is unique, this collection is characterised by harmonious shades of blue, ochre, brown and aubergine, making it ideal for living rooms, lounges and bedrooms.
Our Mohtasham rugs are contemporary colour reinterpretations of one of the finest Persian rugs woven during the 19th century and feature approximately 230,000 knots per square metre. The Haji Jalil collection faithfully recreates the celebrated Persian rugs woven at the end of the 19th century by the legendary master Haji Jalil, one of history's most admired carpet weavers, renowned for his extraordinary mastery of colour and weaving techniques.
