Pakistani Bokhara Hand-Knotted Silk Rug – 3’9” x 5’9”
Offered here is a fine hand-knotted Bokhara rug in the traditional Mori weave, crafted in Pakistan during the late 20th century. Featuring the iconic Turkmen-inspired gul medallions set within a repeating diamond lattice, the design is rendered in soft grey with accents of rose pink, cream, and black. Multiple intricate borders frame the field, showcasing precise geometric and latticework patterns characteristic of the Bokhara style.
This rug is woven with a high knot density of approximately 272 KPI (knots per inch), suggesting a refined level of craftsmanship and durability. Likely silk or a silk blend, the fibers catch the light with a subtle sheen, adding depth to the muted palette. Sized at 3’9” x 5’9” (69 ¼" x 47 ¼"), it is well-proportioned for use in a study, entryway, or as an elegant accent piece in a living space. A strong example of Pakistani Bokhara weaving, desirable for both collectors and decorators.
Condition:
Good condition overall, with signs of gentle use. The rug shows no soiling, stains, or odors. Minor wear is visible consistent with age, but the pile and knotting remain stable and attractive.

Overall: 69 ¼" x 47 ¼" (3’9” x 5’9”)
