Hand-knotted in a special blend of Ghazni wool, this extra-long 3x21 runner rug is a bold new addition to Rug & Kilim’s custom-classics Burano Collection—a luxurious new exploration of important classics and period pieces. On the Design: Admirers of the craft may note a particular inspiration from Oriental rugs with a European sensibility in this piece—a play of elements known to some in our craft for yielding some of the most unique rugs in history. In this piece, a field of cream white tones and a border of light blue underscore floral patterns in warmer red, gold, and green. Keen eyes will admire the delicious sense of movement and fine, curvaceous detail, as well as the notably soft texture of the Ghazni wool—an intentional contribution to a classic for a more contemporary level of comfort, and one of the many beauties that makes this collection a sophisticated, smart new language in design.
