Woven knot by knot over months of devotion, this carpet is an extraordinary rendition of the timeless Tree of Life—a motif cherished in Persian and Kashmiri traditions for centuries.
Set against a deep, velvety black field, the design unfurls like a living garden: graceful tree trunks rise upward, branching into an abundance of blossoms, vines, and leaves. Each bloom—rendered in shades of turquoise, coral, ivory, and muted gold—carries forward the symbolism of renewal, continuity, and beauty eternal.
 
What sets this piece apart is the dynamic colour palette. Unlike the more muted tones traditionally used in Kashmiri silk carpets, here, fresher contrasts of turquoise, coral, and ivory breathe new vitality into the design, lending it a more contemporary resonance while retaining its classical essence.
 
The ivory-toned border frames the central field with rhythmic floral scrolls, enhancing its grandeur and creating balance between serenity and intricacy.
 
With a fineness of 24/24 (576 knots per square inch), this piece embodies the pinnacle of Kashmiri silk weaving—nearly 2 million knots in total, each one individually tied by hand. The lustrous silk threads catch the light with a gentle sheen, shifting hues as the carpet is viewed from different angles, adding to its allure.
 
This is not just a Kashmiri Silk carpet but an heirloom work of art—an object that transcends utility to become a symbol of refinement, heritage, and permanence. Whether laid on the floor, hung as a wall tapestry, or preserved as part of a collection, it stands as a testament to human patience, artistry, the spirit of Kashmir and its heritage of hand-knotted silk carpets.
