Silk was first developed in ancient China and was originally reserved for royalty because of its unique qualities. Thankfully, its special qualities are, today, available to all. A silk rug is the most intricate type of handknotted Oriental carpet due to its one-of-a-kind fine lustrous weave, copious detail, and rich color combinations.
A rug made of pure silk like this is the epitome of luxury. Not only is the production of rare natural silk extremely time-consuming and expensive, but this rug was meticulously hand-knotted over several months in the highest craftsmanship. Natural silk has a beautiful sheen with nearly endless color nuances, depending on the lighting.
