AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
We present an exclusive GOM rug from India, a genuine collectible piece, 100% handmade, dating roughly from 1950–1960, crafted with the highest quality materials and exceptional workmanship.
This elegant rug has been woven with fine kork wool (premium cork wool) and delicate silk details on a cotton foundation, offering a soft, silky touch, as well as an extremely compact, heavy and durable structure.
The rug features approximately 360,000 knots per square meter (6x6 knots), a characteristic typical of high-quality GOM carpets made in the traditional classical Oriental style. (Catawiki)
Its refined classic Oriental floral design, combined with harmonious ivory, antique pink and bluish-gray tones, gives it an elegant and timeless presence.
