Description from the seller

Pakistani Buchara 190 × 272 cm – handwoven wool carpet
For sale a beautiful Pakistani Buchara measuring 190 × 272 cm, made from high-quality wool. The rug is kept in an elegant, subdued color palette: the cream field contrasts with a blue-navy border and subtle accents in shades of dusty pink and graphite.
The rug looks very noble and fits perfectly into both classic and modern interiors.
Condition: good. In places, the pile is shorter on a beige background.
The central part of the rug features a layout of ten distinctive medallions, called gul, which is the most recognizable motif of Buchara carpets, originating from the traditions of Turkmen peoples of Central Asia.
Guls once served as a kind of “tribal crest” and allowed ownership to be recognized by provenance. In nomadic culture, they symbolized:
prosperity and well-being,
protection of home and family,
dynasty continuity and family ties,
harmony between man and nature.
A regular arrangement of medallions emphasizes order, balance, and stability; therefore the Buchara pattern has long been regarded as a symbol of a peaceful, prosperous life.
The richly adorned border surrounding the field creates a symbolic protective boundary. In traditional weaving art, it was meant to guard the inhabitants from negative external influences.
