Onyx & Gold All-Over Floral, Hand-Knotted Pakistani Wool Rug

Dramatic and richly detailed, this rug sets a glowing all-over garden against a deep black ground. There is no central medallion — instead, scrolling vines, palmettes, and blossoms in gold, rust, sage, and ivory spread edge to edge across the field, so the whole surface reads as one continuous, intricate pattern. The black background makes every colour leap forward.

A wide camel-gold border of palmettes and serrated leaves frames the field, edged with red and ivory guard stripes — a warm, luminous contrast to the dark centre. The interplay of black and gold gives the rug a formal, almost regal presence, while the rust, green, and ivory floral accents keep it lively and warm up close.

Hand-knotted on a cotton foundation with the tight double knot, the rug carries the high knot density and fine, even drawing of a quality city-style weave. Black-ground rugs are prized for the way they anchor and dramatise a room; this one would bring depth and elegance to a living room, study, or bedroom. As a one-of-a-kind handmade piece, no other rug shares its exact colours, drawing, or character.
