Spoiler alert: one of my favourite rugs
I’m in love with the exuberance of this antique tribal Khamseh! It’s an exceptional piece in so many ways, but the overpowering beauty is what weakens my knees whenever I see it
The size is incredibly hard to find. Happiness trapped in a 7’ x 10’ frame (305 x 222 cm). These Morghy peacock rugs invariably are Kelleh proportioned, long and narrow. This, however, is generously balanced with amazing width
The awesomeness mostly resides in the terrific natural dyes. The turquoise blue is sublime. Simply sublime. Over 95% of these Khamseh rugs are dark blue. See the detail shots and you’ll notice the breathtaking appeal extends to all motifs and decorative sections. I absolutely love the colorful borders
This nomadic masterpiece is in superb condition after over 130 years of existence. It hasn’t lost an ounce of sparkle and is one of the most magical things I’ve had. The lady who created it was blessed with boundless taste and grace
