Kaschmir reiner Seidenteppich

<p><span>An exquisite silk item in an unusual corridor carpet elongated format, in which the loveliness of the colours are immeasurably enhanced by the deep lustre of the pure silk pile. A striking geometric lozenge repeat unique to the Srinagar decorative tradition is expressed in complementary shades of the most enchanting pastel tonality, and composed within the attenuated field with infinite grace and sense of balance. Contrary to popular belief, a finely crafted pure silk carpet is of higher durability than its woollen equivalent - as the number of silk items surviving for the 16th Century amply testifies - and accordingly silk is a most appropriate material, however precious, for a hallway work which may be placed in a high traffic area of the sophisticated home.</span></p>
