Samarkand rugs are among the most fascinating types of rug in Central Asia. Named after the legendary city of Samarkand - a crossroads on the historic Silk Road - they combine stylistic influences from Persia, China, Mongolia and Russia. The result: expressive patterns, strong symbolism and extraordinary colors ranging from deep red and saffron yellow to indigo and turquoise.
Samarkand rugs traditionally come from the region around Uzbekistan and northern Afghanistan. They are characterized by their very own design language: floral elements meet geometric patterns, occasionally interspersed with Chinese symbols such as clouds, coins or bats. It is often the small details that make them so unique - symbols that signify luck, wealth or harmony, artfully incorporated into the overall picture.
The colors of Samarkand rugs are vibrant and lively. Unlike classic Persian rugs, which are often dominated by red or blue, Samarkand rugs use an unusual, almost vibrant variety of colors. The harmonious color combinations manage to enrich both traditional and modern interiors - while always remaining a real eye-catcher.
Samarkand rugs are usually made from high-quality new wool, occasionally with a touch of silk for shine and depth of detail. Many of the rugs are hand-knotted and come from small, family-run workshops that still work according to traditional methods. The weave is fine to medium dense, which ensures a robust yet elegant structure. Thanks to the durable materials, Samarkand rugs are suitable for both living and prestigious rooms.
Whether boho-chic, mid-century or classic oriental - a Samarkand rug can be combined in a variety of ways. It brings color, culture and structure to modern interiors without appearing overloaded. These rugs look particularly beautiful in open-plan living rooms, under dining tables or as a highlight in the bedroom.
