Arbal Workshop Rare Color Medallion Multicolor x Yellow 61x92cm (ID23009)

When laid at the entrance, a mandala-like concentric medallion appears in the center of the crimson ground, with large paisleys (boteh) quietly facing each other on either side. A vibrant yellow border tightens the piece like a frame, and each time you look closely, you discover new small patterns within the paisley.

Albar Workshop's Colorful Medallion x Paisley

This is a work from the Albar workshop, which has a strong following due to its rare color scheme and unique composition among Qum silk products. A mandala-like concentric medallion is placed in the crimson field, with lamp-shaped pendants hanging above and below. Large turquoise-ground paisleys (boteh) face each other on either side, with small patterns like flowers and birds intricately woven into them. A vibrant yellow border frames the entire rug.

The Intricacy and Sheen Unique to Silk

Because it's made of fine 100% silk threads, you can discern the concentric circles of the medallion, the intricate patterns within the paisley, and even each individual flower in the border. The combination of crimson, yellow, and turquoise changes its expression with the angle of the light, a quality unique to silk.

How to Integrate it into Your Life

Measuring 61x92cm, it's the perfect size for an entryway, bedside, as a center rug next to a sofa, or framed as a wall hanging. With its diverse color scheme, it will stand out even more in a simple white-walled space.

This is a one-of-a-kind item selected by the owner at the workshop in Qum. You can see the actual sheen and detailed colors in the video. Golestan Persian Carpet Specialty Store.
